My son started here at the mark of 3.5 years old when this school newly opened. They welcomed us…read moreeven though our son was not fully potty trained and helped us along the way to get him there. Most reputed child care facilities do not accept kids after 3 years if they are not potty trained but the truth is not all kids get there by the mark of 3 and this school understands that and we are very grateful to Ms. Mannu who was able to work with us on this. My son is now 5 years old and he has moved through 4 different classes and teachers and has had the most wonderful time in every class. Every teacher has been so kind and so hands on, ensuring they work individually with every kid to make them comfortable and learn. All the teachers are so very welcoming and warm, happily share feedback. My son loves this school. School is very well managed and maintained. No concerns with amenities or cleanliness. Staff is organized and available to assist always. Curriculum is very good, kids learn STEM concepts through practical experiments. The school does an excellent job of developing empathy and emotional intelligence through daily affirmations and lessons. I am deeply grateful to all his teachers - Ms. Megan, Ms. Madeline, Ms. Christine, Mr. Aaron, Ms. Alyse, Ms. Idah, Ms. Sreeja, Ms. Rohini, Ms. Jasmyne for all their hard work and the teachings they have managed to impart to these young minds. I would specially call out Ms. Christine & Ms. Alyse for everything they do - my son bonded very deeply with them. Best part about the school in our opinion is that the school is constantly running activities and you can expect 2-3 events every month. Appreciation months, pet days, science experiments (lifecycle of butterflies, hatching chicks, etc.), book fairs, talent shows, mothers/fathers/other historic days you name it - the list is endless. Point is they are actively engaging parents and kids every single month through so many variety of activities. As a parent, I can see how much my son enjoys these events and is developing core memories learning through tangible experiences. And as a parent who really loves staying involved with their child, I heavily enjoy these events as well. I would happily recommend every parent to this school and have nothing to share other than positive things.

We've seen such incredible growth in her and how quickly she's reaching new milestones.

The entire staff shows genuine care and thoughtfulness, and we really appreciate the fun activities that also involve families and help us feel connected.

The Clearwater School is a true testament to the values of diversity, inclusion, and community…read more Within a year of being there, my 8-year-old son (then six), who had never before felt comfortable in social groups outside his family, began calling this place his second home. He was given the time and space to build relationships with staff and other students at his own pace, always supported but never rushed. Children at Clearwater learn what they are interested in, developing one of the most valuable lifelong skills--how to learn. Through observation and thoughtful discussions with students, staff, and family, my son has deepened his understanding of people, the world around him, and, most importantly, himself. In his two years at Clearwater, he has learned to navigate conflicts through the Justice Committee, advocate for his needs through the democratic process, and appreciate the significance of friendship, culture, and responsibility within a community. And along the way, he has also learned to read, perform arithmetic, estimate probability and statistics, and explore physics through hands-on construction. He loves drawing, music, and the logic of computer programming--all interests that have flourished in an environment where curiosity is nurtured. I am incredibly grateful for the existence of this school and the role it plays in my son's life--and in our family's life.
