We couldn't have asked for a better school experience for our children. The school academics and curriculum are fantastic. The entire community is very engaged and it is a wonderful 1st start to education.

My son has now attended from 1st grade to 6th grade, and our experience has been outstanding throughout. The instructors have remained communicative and engaging, the administration has been considerate and accommodating, even as we enter into the occasionally trying period of tween years and all of its expected craziness. They are very much a family, and one where we're happy to be a part. My son's academics are strong, and I really feel he's been given a good foundation for the next step in his academic career. If you're looking for a private school in the Capital District, you won't go wrong with the Taylor School.

Excellent experience in every way. My children are very different but they each have gotten what they need at Taylor School. They truly love learning and are making great connections between what they learn in the classroom and the real world. They are confident, independent and well-spoken.

It’s an experience I wish I’d had access to as a child. The staff welcomes us and treats everyone as family. The students are happy. It’s a bright and vibrant place.

The Taylor School fosters children's love to learn, allows for creative input from the students, develops confident and engaged community members. I have been told by many in the community that they know my child is a student before we indicate as such based on her ability to communicate effectively and her presence.

I am a student at the Taylor school. I have been going there since preschool. I have had a very enriching and unique learning experience there so far. I have learned much more than just curriculum with their project-based learning system. I have also learned skills like leadership, collaboration, and public speaking skills. I love going to school at the Taylor school and highly recommend it.

Fantastic! A nurturing and engaging school. The teachers are extremely capable and caring, and there is a true feeling of community in the school. Great summer program as well.

This school is way under-rated in my view. With excellent teachers, academic director and principal, this school has unmatched qualities in tuning a child for future challenges of the future. This is a great school by any means.

This fabulous school has encouraged, challenged, supported, and nurtured my daughter to be the best she can be - all the while having fun, being creative, and learning leadership and social skills that will serve her well in future schooling. We love this school.

My daughters have been attending the Taylor School since they were school aged. From day one they have love every minute. I would recommend this school to all parents with children grades pre-school through sixth grade. ***** By the way I'm in fifth grade and i am using my father's computer and i have learned that talking like an adult is hard.*****

I took my son out of this school after 2 years because he was anything but joyful about learning there. He was struggling with academics and stressed out and the teachers and administration did not take my concerns seriously! After he started going to public school he became a much happier kid, and he finally started reading! He also told me after the fact that he was being bullied at Taylor school! I wish I had known sooner, and that I had pulled him out of that school sooner. To think that I was paying for that!
