The teachers here are great - and they are the reason why the school is as good as it is. But…read moreeverything starts at the top and the Head of School not only has no background in education or business but is not held accountable by the Board for all her massive, messy errors. She hires like minded people that are just nasty. Turnover in the administration is shockingly high; and sadly it's the good people that leave. Something like 7 people quit this year? And it's a small team. If management could be replaced with someone who enjoys the job, and parents and children, this school would be top in area.

As an English-speaking parent of a child that has been at Rochambeau since she was three years old,…read moreI am extremely happy with how my child has grown over the years with her knowledge of French, English, and now Spanish. She is also someone who, given the extremely diverse community at Rochambeau (now, I believe over 80 nationalities represented!) is comfortable and informed about the world! No school is perfect--I know of highly rated private schools in the DC area where students struggled with math and parents were paying upwards of $45k a year! Communication is a struggle at times with the administration--but they have listened from American parents and have grown tremendously, for instance now making sure all parent/family programs are in English and French. Rochambeau is an amazing global education with incredibly dedicated teachers at a reasonable price point. I highly recommend it to parents looking for a school that invests in the children and an international education!

As a student from Landon I have this opportunity to share my feelings about Landon. Landon is a…read moregreat school that prepares great men. But, it is ridiculously overpriced for its elementary and middle school years you would be better off waiting until high school to save your $240,000(If you start from 3rd grade it's 40k a year). It has great opportunities for all. The schools discipline is vey dumb they act like your breaking the law with their dumb codes they think the kids care about (which they don't). They do a good job with teaching and education is quite good. They also have green slips which makes you feel you did something horrible and it gives you major anxiety to tell your parents( That is middle and high school). After a while you tend to just not care and you learn to lie and not tell on people when encouraged to. Their sports are one of the best things about Landon with all the options. Classmates at the school are mostly nice but as you stay longer you see the divided groups of the "cool" kids or the "weirdos". Bullying happens and some of the kids are real douches. The lunch is probably better than public schools but repeated and not the best. Some of the teachers are the best while some are scummy and you learn simply nothing from them. Also, the small classes are a plus. Overall Landon is a good place and definitely a place people should try after better schools. This review was affected way too much by my time at Landon cause it's kinda been shit but that's all.

Absolutely horrible experience. Waste of money. For this…read morehuge amount of money children are not even taught handwriting or good behaving but they are educated how to sue their own parents. Poor girls are not allowed to wear warm tights in winter, instead they have to go with bare legs when it's freezing cold. Is that normal? Teachers wear pijamas, that's ok, but little girls can't wear tights? Why the child isn't allowed to bring even warm tea for lunch? Ice water is ok but warm tea is not, in winter? The teachers have very poor level of behaving and education (mostly online). Constantly collecting money in something else. Don't send your child there!

I came to find Fernwood through word of mouth in my neighborhood. Several of my neighbors…read morerecommended the school, highlighting the benefits of the Montessori principles and the dedicated staff that go above and beyond to support the growth and development of the children following this methodology. It sounded too good to be true and so I did my due diligence and setup an in person tour before I made any decisions. Ms. Shaheen led the tour, I was pregnant at the time and in tears at the thought of my son being away from home for the first time (2 at the time). The amount of care and patience she took with answering all of my questions without being pushy or short ultimately led to my decision to enroll my son. Here I am, two years later and my older son is thriving. He is able to learn at his own pace with the full support of the teachers and supporting staff. Every single staff member knows my name and my child's name. My younger son is enrolling this Fall and I am feeling confident knowing both of my sons will be with staff that I love and trust. If you are hesitant, do yourself a favor and schedule a tour to see for yourself why Fernwood is such a special place.

Through the Toddler and Primary programs as well as summer camp, this school has given our child a strong foundation and lasting friendships. Through times of stability and of turbulence, Ms. Shaheen is a force of dedication for our family (as well as all the families), and we are forever grateful. If you are undecided, during your tour, ask to connect with current Fernwood parents for meaningful reviews.
