HUGE mistake, my niece was bullied so bad she had to be treated for severe depression and suicidal ideation. After multiple meetings they started sending her to the school counselor for help, that nut job "taught" her how to be "less weird" so the kids wouldn't torment her. She blamed her............SHE BLAMED HER! both of my kids were bullied. Two of the kids had to be treated for depression and received therapy. The school told me my son was the problem, there was many tears and punishments and fights because he would not stop "acting up at school" when I finally pulled them out, one of the teachers pulled me aside and said, " I'm sorry for everything they put you through, He was never the problem." They were destroying me and my son's relationship. and for what?! Everybody else is always the problem. It's never them. Protect your children from this school. This is the GREEDIEST institution I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. The new principle has to many faces to deal with. one of the worst people I've met, her and her little helper aren't catholic and definitely do not portray the Love, acceptance, help, and values that the school used to endow. It's so sad. When your child is bullied in public school, it makes the news. When your child gets bullied at St. Francis, you have to pull them out in the middle of the year and then they will sue you for the tuition you would have paid if they had been able to stay. Moved ALL the kids to public school and now there is no more medication therapy or self-hatred. THEY ARE THRIVING. They were never the problem! After having them tested and finding out that my soon to be 3rd and 5h grader are still at a 1st grade level! I am now having to pay a tutor to get them caught up. This tutor did in 6 months what St. Francis couldn't do in FIVE YEARS. It is just a business now, not a family. Not anymore. "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. ~Matthew 6:24

Don't tell me it can't be done. The teachers and staff at Churchill do what so many say cannot be done on a daily basis and they do it with compassion and engagement. It's clear they really care about the future leaders they are molding and they truly WANT to do the work they do. After transferring my daughter here, walking in the halls I heard children laughing for the first time in years. It brought me to tears. These students are genuinely happy at school. It's nothing short of miraculous. This is how school should be. Not the gladiator arena so many schools have become. Thank you. Thank you a thousand times over! Churchill has made a monumental positive impact not just on my daughter but on our entire family.

It is so…read moreracist I am Hispanic and it seems like the counseling and principal only like helping the whites. Last year as I was a 6th grader kids were making fun of me and my teacher heard and didn't do anything which was in science class. I had issues through out the school year and the counselor didn't do anything to help. She would just threaten me about not coming back next year instead of helping me. How does their staff make 60 through 80 thousand a year?! Like what! They don't even help a kid that is a different race then other kids and it seems like they only help the kids that like in the cove which have a lot of money!

My son has attended the Summit Academy schools since first grade. He's going into 10th this year. I…read moreoriginally enrolled him here because he was transitioning from Challenger School, which has insanely high academic standards, and Summit at the time ranked in the top 5% of Utah schools on test scores. Other campuses have opened now, and the test scores have grown closer to the state average. What's NOT average is the emotional health of the staff and culture there! I've been SO impressed with the quality of the teachers and their support and interest in helping the students succeed. No one is perfect, but wow, the staff and management here and also at the middle school are extremely approachable and really care. Statistically, they shouldn't all be amazing. They're a small school, which is both good and bad. The teacher student ratio is like 18:1, and they're incredible teachers. My son's English teacher last year is a PhD. adjunct professor at UVU and had topics he'd have the kids discuss every week to help them evaluate their values. I actually enjoyed hearing about his assignments every week. His science teacher was given the freedom to create a course of her choosing, so she chose Oceanography and is trying to arrange a SCUBA trip to Catalina Island for the students (disclaimer: not sure if that's approved!). They're just super focused on the kids. Obviously, they don't have the breadth of extracurricular options that large schools do, but when students or parents give feedback or participate, it's completely noticed and they make improvements right away! Staff and teachers know your student by name, and the students can pretty much join whatever sport or club they want to and rise to leadership if they choose. It's an emotionally healthy school in my opinion. I didn't choose it for that, but I've ended up being so grateful for it. I'm loving the adults my son is being influenced by.

Coming from a traditional public school, I love that my children are well looked after and the principal even knows their names. The teachers and staff listen to parents and students concerns which I found refreshing after my previous experiences. I also really love how it is a bit easier to get on sports teams, cheer, etc. The class sizes are smaller and they have an amazing IEP program. Mrs. Jeppson really advocates for her students and goes out of her way to contact colleges, tech programs to give her students the information they need to further their education after high school. This is not an uncommon experience at this school. They care about their students.

I love watching the plays and going to after school activities. All the teachers and administrators are nice and really make you feel like you belong.

Our family's experience with Dancing Moose Montessori School was absolutely horrific, and…read moreunfortunately it has left a lasting impression on our entire family. I do not use those words lightly. Our greatest concern was the safety and well-being of our child. The situation became serious enough that we ultimately felt we had no choice but to involve outside authorities. What made an already devastating experience even worse was how the school responded. Instead of accountability, compassion, and genuine concern for what had happened, we felt blamed and dismissed. As parents, you entrust a school with the most important thing in your life: your child. We trusted Dancing Moose Montessori School to keep our child safe, and our experience completely shattered that trust. Of every school or childcare environment we have ever entrusted with our children, this was by far our worst experience. I would strongly encourage parents considering Dancing Moose to ask very detailed questions about supervision, safety procedures, incident reporting, and how the school responds when a parent raises a serious concern.
