[quote=Anonymous]Agreed. While the teachers and curriculum are stellar at this school, the small class size/gender imbalance became an issue for my child. We were sad to leave the school on account of this, but a socially unhappy kid is not going to access the curriculum no matter how great it is. The teachers are lovely but with no guidance counselor, they were not equipped to deal with many social-emotional issues and often failed to consistently and fairly address bullying and harassing behavior. Consequences for student behavior were not doled out even-handedly. Be forewarned that a school of this size needs an inordinate amount of parental assistance beyond any school I have ever seen (volunteering, fundraising, marketing). The number of "asks" throughout the year is exhausting from soccer balls and diverse books to monthly teacher appreciation lunches, annual fund, volunteering at open houses, advertising the school within our networks etc....it just should not be this hard for a school that already charges $22,000/year. There is a lot of history between the church and school, and it would serve families well to understand it as it informs where the school is today and how well it operates.[/quote]
