I think most of the people on this thread visited Field one time and read DCUM a bunch and think they know about it. Current family here with some fact checking.

Inexperienced teachers? False. My daughter has been there two years and every one of her teachers has been great, with one exception of a teacher I thought was just meh. Zero of her teachers have been first or second year teachers, most of them have many years of experience. We have been truly impressed on that front.

And mold, really? You people are ridiculous. I spend a whole lot of time there and it absolutely does not smell like mold. The campus is homey, welcoming, really nice, if a bit small (wish the theater in particular were larger). I can't believe I have to say this, but false.

One thing that does ring true is what PP pointed out - academic support staff is too small, and I'll add that it's lackluster. The teachers are very attentive, so it has worked for my ADHD daughter, but I do wish the academic support staff was more robust and more proactive.

My daughter loves Field and so do we. It is such a nice place and we have been really happy with the academics. As always, don't believe what you read here. Check out their college admissions. (But if this kind of thread keeps the PITA parents out and keeps the school smaller for those who are in the know, then better for us I guess!)
