The high school is a continuation of the very good education they have received. The high school isn't new but it is very nice inside. The sports programs and facilities are very nice as well.

Moved here from a large NJ city so definitely appreciate the level of education and safety that the children receive. I'm sure it's not perfect but I am very happy sending my kids here.

He was nervous at first but very quickly made friends he talked about every day. The older students were friendly, and the curriculum is great. Lots of homework. Maybe too much tbh! Also, he used to hold his pencil funny but now his handwriting has improved with the assistance of his elementary school teachers. Now in middle school, we've been happy with the changes at the new building at the boys and girls clubs. Its also important for private schools to know that the fit is important, and we've had our experience at some in the area. I will say that we've had a great experience so far. Best of luck to others.

So far, I've been impressed by the level of sincerity and kindness of the teachers. I appreciate as a parent that students can be themselves here, but also grow their character to become responsible members of the community. When the admin send out the newsletter, I look forward to finding out who the student of the month is, how the soccer match between staff and students went, and updates of many more fun team-building activities! Thank you New Hope, for providing a safe, supportive, and intellectually stimulating environment for our children.

We managed to grab a culinary taste of mac and cheese, eggplant parmesan garlic knot slider, skirt steak sandwich and coleslaw (Argentina), ground beef lomo style empanada (Peru), and peanut butter cup cupcake. To walk off our meal, we managed to tour around the campus, which comprises three academic buildings and two athletic complexes. It was a nice day spent outdoors.

I want a place that my daughter was going to go to school where she can grow up with kids around her that feel like family.

There will be no other place I would want my daughter to be!

My kids went there several years ago and although initially we were very happy with the nursery and…read morepre-k, we later discovered the major neglect taking place at all levels. Examples include - 15 kids in a class left uncared for by aides, daily fights and bullying between kids that is left unaddressed (leaving our kids with constant bruises and cuts) and getting excuses like "boys will be boys", teachers handling children roughly, administrators lying about things that happened or didn't - thank goodness for the videos that caught them in major lies, baby crying for hours in nursery without response from caregivers, caregivers badmouthing babies. I watched my kid being shoved to the ground from behind by another kid in the playground, who was a head taller than him, right in front of the teacher and the teacher did nothing. I watched a kid hit my son 3 feet away from the teacher who ignored them and then when he came to her bleeding, she sent him back to his table. I saw a teacher grabbing my child at the age of 2 and roughly pushing him into a chair because he got up when he wasn't supposed to. I heard a baby cry for hours with no one consoling them. We took our kids out when we realized that all our concerns were true and not our imagination. When you feel like things aren't adding up and your kid goes from a sweet calm child to an aggressive and anxious kid, but you are being gaslit by the school and you can't quite put your finger on what is causing it - question their environment and go with your gut! We are still dealing with the aftermath of our childs' formative experience at Rainbow Montessori. Remember, it is at a young age that many of their behavioral traits are formed. So if your kid has a daily experience of physical abuse, caregiver neglect and an overall need to be in flight or flight mode, it will shape their future behavior and experiences in life. This was a few years ago and things may have changed, but I wouldn't count on it as long as the admins haven't changed. If you are considering the school, it would be advisable to review videos of a typical day before enrolling.
