They are awful for kids with any needs and would likely reject a kid with a diagnosis outright.


Sadly, this mirrors our experience and that of many others we know.

Milton, Milton, Milton.
We've been there for 10 years and can say that the school mirrors our values in regard to pluralism, inclusion, and social justice. The academics are not-to-be-beat and the new Head is a gem.

They are so far apart from each other (with traffic could be more than an hour). Decide based on where you will live

Our experience is as a new middle school family. We are so impressed. We switched from MCPS from well-regarded public schools. The middle school curriculum has been wonderful. I had straight A students in public school and they are being challenged. The faculty reaches out all the time. Just curious what people think is a "mess". We haven't seen it.

CESJDS is a great option, they were 5 days a week in person for kindergarten next year and they will be 5 days a week in person for all grades next year (this year all other grades are in hybrid and in person between 2-4 days a week depending on the grade) but they may be full for kindergarten at this point

I don't think it's a mess - I think it's a good school and he's getting a good education. It's also a pretty big school (for private/Jewish) so there are lots of class options, choices for more or less religious kids and a good enviornment.


What grade? We have applied for 6th but missed most of the virtual events earlier last year.
