Once Mr. Kimble took over things got really exciting...for the kids. He actually saved my nephew Dominic and his mom, Joyce, from her crazed ex husband Crisp.

It's been at least 20+ years since I last saw this movie, but I totally recognized it when I saw it.

Good times!

This is our first year at Lewis and this has been the most pleasantly positive and easy…read moreexperiences. Our kiddo is coming from a Montessori preschool setting, which ended up being very difficult for us. The school has offered us all the support, welcoming staff and families, lots of wonderful programs, that are all wonderful. Lewis promotes diversity-love-support to students & families from all backgrounds (they stand t true to the their word about being inclusive, unlike other schools that just throw the word around, but do not hold true to). All of the kids are so friendly to one another. It definitely has more of an arts feel to it. The facility is very secure, and the classrooms are very clean & full of natural daylight. Our student is also blessed with a 16 student classroom vs 25 students for the school we were slated to go to that us east of here.

Our kids have been at Marylhurst for three years, and they're thriving academically, socially, and…read moreemotionally. Our fourth grader is reading at a tenth-grade level, and our first grader is doing second-grade math--but more importantly (to us), they LOVE their school and are having an awesome experience. The teachers are just exceptional. They're all deeply attuned to each child's learning style and emotional development. The narrative reports we receive twice a year are so thoughtful and insightful that it's palpable that our kids are really KNOWN and appreciated for who they truly are. Their personality quirks, the edges where they're being challenged by a concept... it's all there. The teachers seriously SEE our kids. All of the teachers we've had has been experienced, compassionate, and connected with the kids. But the best part is that our kids have fallen in love with learning, which is what we hoped for most. Our oldest was quickly becoming an anxious perfectionist at a public school in kindergarten before we made the switch, but as soon as we moved to Marylhurst, he began to expand into a flexible, growth-mindset oriented student who understands that mistakes are one of the best ways to learn. The kids get to learn not through endless worksheets or computer programs, but through student-led projects that often turn into elaborate, imagined worlds. Since the kids own so much of the process together, they are invested in their projects, and learn to collaborate across ages in blended classrooms. And the campus is beautiful; it's woodsy and peaceful, with a pond and forested trails for cross-country running. We couldn't be happier with our kids' experience at Marylhurst. It's a nurturing, inspiring community that fosters curiosity and confidence. 10/10, five stars.

The curriculum prepares children for both future academic and social challenges and the environmental education (there is an additional 26-acre farm campus) promotes great responsibility. Highlights include: -Class sizes average 16 students. -The main teacher generally stays with their class from 1st-8th grade. -Media/corporate/commercial-free environment. -No Common Core or standardized testing. -Lots of outside time for every grade level -Kids that like going to school and thrive! This is a well rounded educational experience that helps develop sharp, motivated and emotionally strong young humans.

And after talking with Emily, we were sold. He has loved his experience there - having a smaller setting has been really great for him as a kid who's on the quieter side. He came out of his shell very quickly and talks a ton about the other kids and teachers. They do so many creative projects and activities, and the approach to reading and math is much more hands on and intuitive than the worksheets he experienced in his kindergarten. He says he really loves the art they do there.

I have used them in the past and will not again. However, I have been able to contact all of my children's teachers whenever I need to. I had a meeting earlier today with one due to some health issues, and they were not only able to suggest options of who to call there to provide additional support, but also on things we could do, such as me reading her things to her and voice-to-text (eye problems). For my oldest, she has issues with math, and they are always quick to help, be it with text, Zoom, or extra materials to help her. They even have peer tutoring. I like the amount of class time and the length of the assignments. I feel like it's just enough for them to learn the topic, but not so much that they are on for 8 hours a day. My oldest does about 4 1/2-5 hours in high school, and my 5th grader does about 3 1/2-4. That is counting classes and school work, and it is Monday-Friday.
