An added bonus is that they offer the day camp right next door so they attend daycare during the year and then head to camp in the summer. Can't recommend highly enough!

Now that being said, I would probably not send any future children here. Look I know Catholic schools are supposed to be strict but I felt like my creativity was stifled. I want my child to feel like they can question things and be different. And hey I was always getting in trouble and doing poorly there and yet I turned out fine. It also turns out I have a learning disability that wasn't noticed until my junior year in high school. I went to a catholic high school my freshmen year (horrible experience) and a public one my last three years. I think overall public school education is better because I think it's important for kids to learn about other religions, cultures, sex, etc. Anyway look if I heard that the place was closing down I would be devastated but it has the typical restrictions that any catholic school has.

But when I see Villa girls in Philly, they often exclaim in gushing tones, "Wasn't it the BEST time of your LIFE! Don't you MISS it?!" Abso-fucking-lutely NOT. I always said the best thing about Villa was Malvern Prep down the road. Between the pressure to excel in academics, play sports, and cram 51,000 activities into your schedule, I hated my life from ages 14-18. I'm not some Columbine outcast either. I made good grades, had a group of friends, did charity work and was in the school play, choir, and volunteered. Villa Maria's school policies were to repress creativity, demand conformity, and always look picture-perfect in your pervert's dream Catholic school uniform. Villa takes the credit for the natural tendencies of excessively parented, upperclass white girls; which is to achieve. It has nothing to do with the school or their ridiculously quaint ideas about education. Don't send your girls to Villa. If they are smart, they will do well in any school. If they need help or are not inclined to Lockean "tabula rasa" classroom environments, they will wither and die under Villa's oppressive regime. Up with education, down with Villa.

I had several academic weaknesses that I believe would have landed me in special ed if I had attended public school. Going to Kimberton allowed me to grow into myself in my own time. I *highly* recommend it. I teach at an afterschool program in NYC's Chinatown, and I see stressed, overworked children daily. Their parents hold the attitude that if they constantly study (after school, weekends, vacation, 24/7), only then will they succeed. I have observed several develop anxiety, and too many of them lack the ability to truly think for themselves. My point is, I did not even receive homework in lower school at all and still managed to grow into a capable, college educated adult. KWS (and Waldorf ed in general) actually puts careful thought into the development of children instead of treating them like mini robots. In response to Michael D: All schools have "risky social aspects", but that is due to the students, not the school. In my time at KWS, those who "indulged in pretty much all of it" were strongly dealt with by the school if the incident was on school grounds. Anything else is not the responsibility of the school, but your own, Michael. If you are concerned about what your kid is getting up to, perhaps take a look at your own parental discipline methods?

This gets 5 stars. Enjoy!

Our reasons for reevaluating his situation were many, including the birth of our second son. We sought a better opportunity enrich our sons lives at this critical stage with experiences and learning opportunities at a place that felt more structured, safe, clean, and genuinely had the best interest of the children/students in everything they did. Jennifer (the owner) is involved, detail oriented, attentive and communicative. The teachers and staff are friendly, present, and clearly care. The use of email and general technology (e.g. Tadpole) to amplify the communication is effective and keeps things transparent. The activities and interactions our son has had in just the first few weeks have opened up new windows for his curiosity and intellect. The shift in our older son's demeanor was immediately evident. We wholeheartedly recommend this school.

The staff members are engaged and caring, and the turnover is low. Our kids loved FKS from Day 1. Their days are full of music, sports, arts and crafts, outdoor time, and age-appropriate "academics," including early math and language skills. Due to the small environment, they get to interact with other kids of all ages, which is great for their social and emotional development. Last but not least, FKS has a "transitional" Kindergarten program that sets them apart from every other day care in the area. If your child just misses the Kindergarten cut off, or if you've decided to delay your child's entrance into Kindergarten for any reason, you should definitely look into FKS's Pre-K2/Kindergarten classroom!

RTELC has been such a special place for our family and has given our children an incredible foundation during some of their most important early years. What makes Rose Tree so exceptional is how genuinely they live out their mission and values every single day. The school creates a safe, nurturing, stimulating, and inclusive environment where children are encouraged to grow into capable, confident, kind, and independent little people. There is such a strong emphasis on compassion, diversity, inclusivity, and helping every child reach their fullest potential - and you truly feel that in everything they do. The teachers are extraordinary. They are warm, loving, patient, and deeply invested in each child, while also providing the structure and guidance needed to encourage positive behavior, confidence, and growth. You can tell they view teaching as much more than a job - they put their heart and soul into making every child feel valued and special. One of the things we appreciated most was how much learning happens through creativity, exploration, and play. Our children genuinely looked forward to going to "school" every single day. RTELC somehow balances a fantastic educational curriculum with an environment that still feels joyful, relaxed, and centered around childhood wonder and discovery. The community they create for families is also incredibly special. From the amazing art show (which honestly rivals many elementary school productions!) to craft nights, holiday celebrations, and end-of-year performances that somehow make parents smile, laugh, and cry all at once - every detail is thoughtful and meaningful. We are endlessly grateful for the love, care, professionalism, and dedication the entire RTELC team has shown our family. Rose Tree is truly a remarkable community, and we will miss it tremendously when our time there comes to an end.
