My daughter is now in 3rd grade and loves her teachers, wenn she comes home, she often even plays, that she is a teacher and repeats with her puppets what she did and learned in the school. Although she had a hard time with divorce between me and her mother, the school gave her stability, joy and purpose. If you want to have a good experience and best results with any waldorf school, it's necessary to understand it's core principles and foundation and cooperate with that. It's hundert years approved pedagogy with great results in the whole world, but it needs cooperation. I am grateful and happy, that my daughter can be educated in WSOC!

Many of the teachers are amazing. My child was blessed to travel the grades with Brooke Natzke and that experience was amazing. I can't recommend a more qualified person.

Our daughter is attending Waldorf High School and has found many of the teachers to be very supportive and helpful. She found her passion because of the championing of her Earth Science Teacher.

Our family has been blessed to be a part of MCS for 10 years. It's a beautiful thing to know that my children can be at a school where there is a firm foundation in Christ and that our school is unwavering in our commitment to Christian education and academic excellence. The administration, staff and teachers have had such a strong impact in molding my childrens' academic and spiritual formation. I know the years spent here will forever be cherished and valued in their hearts and mine.

Year 4 update. I…read morejust saw a 1 star review by a Texas based user about an imaginary vice principal named "Ms Luethfold" and I am pretty sure they got the wrong business - there apparently are a ton of early college high schools out there. don't believe me? try registering for college tours - the list is longer then the screen can fit! back to real update. besides all the accolades the school is winning lately, as a parent, i have to stress the self selection aspect and systems they have in place at this school. at this point you can replace the entire admin and teachings staff - and they are at 90%+ rate doing extraordinary job with the 10%- doing an adequate job - and the system will continue working. these small systemic social interventions - also known as "the culture" are self-reinforcing. as my "soon to be college bound" kid observed: i don't know dad but lots of seniors somehow got into hyper selective schools like UCLA and UCI last year. ate there problems? yeah! thats the point! no plan survives the first contact with the enemy. as a parent, what i liked is that they really try their best to work with you and your kid to achieve best possible outcomes for your kid. in retrospect, enrolling our kid was the best decision we made for our kid in a long time.

If you have an academically oriented student, then this is the high school for you. Students earn…read morecollege credits concurrently with high school credits. The class sizes are small and the teachers are excellent. One of the most impressive aspects about ECHS is that the students start college prep in their freshman year giving them the tool for success. My student attended ECHS and it was the perfect fit for him. The best thing you can do is check the school out in person. Talk with the staff. Talk with the teachers. You'll be more than impressed with the entire program.

I had an exceptional experience touring Isaac Charter School. From the moment we arrived, we were…read moreimpressed by the welcoming environment and the calm, quiet neighborhood the school is located in. The area feels safe and peaceful, which makes daily drop-off and pick-up very easy and stress-free. What truly stood out was the depth of knowledge and passion shown by both the teachers and the principal. They were thoughtful, well-spoken, and clearly dedicated to providing a strong educational foundation for their students. It was evident that they genuinely care about child development, learning, and long-term growth. After the tour, we felt confident and excited about the school's approach to education. Our toddler really enjoyed the environment, and we are very likely to enroll after seeing firsthand the care, structure, and vision the school offers. Highly recommend to any family looking for a nurturing and academically focused school community.

Watching my 4yo (newly 5) learn to read at a fast rate. Before entering she was starting to write and within a few months she has the confidence to begin attempting to write her own stories. She is adding and subtracting. This is well beyond TK standards. Thank you issac! She joyfully sings in Spanish in the home and is teaching me mandarin. She is socially and academically thriving.

We have…read morefound that the school is very strict with their policies, including not letting certain children sit together at lunch, not letting children go outside of the school at all, and manipulating student's personal preferences. Students have told me that the staff is allowed to interrupt the classes multiple times a day and yell at the teachers for not teaching exactly what the staff wants. The school perhaps is "toxic" and I personally would not reccomend it to anyone.
