f You believe Education is the key to your child's future, Linden Waldorf School is the right place…read morefor your child's dreams to come true. I researched all other top private schools in the area, only to realize that Linden's Staff and Teacher's are a notch above the rest. They are trailblazers with their unique Curriculum, Culture and Philosophy. I can say this because every person who chooses to work at this school has only love in their hearts for inspiring children to become the best version of themselves in this wonderful environment. We are fortunate, feeling blessed to be able to have our child attend. The Waldorf methodology has been in practice for over 100 years and throughout the entirety of the globe. It's both time-tested and more relevant than ever to preparing our children for the unknown landscape ahead. The positive feeling from when you enter this incredible campus runs deep. You will be filled with optimism for your child's future. I highly suggest applying early to not have your child miss out on a once in a lifetime experience. Linden Waldorf is a very special place with the ability to take what's known now and shape new possibilities for the future.

Here's what the five stars are for: -The warm hearted…read moregreeting from the first call to admissions to yesterday morning's drop off. -The food train (more than one round) rallied for my family when I got long haul Covid after the first months of being here in the Linden community. -The relentless communication from one of our subject's teacher that my son was really struggling and that he really needed attention around this and the meeting, emails and text answered so timely and my sons response to excel at that level of commitment and care. -The Square Dance Chili Cookout. 'Nuff said. -Our grades teachers being seriously so fun, authentic and committed to both of my children's development in their time. Coming from another waldorf school it differed in the approach to academics, especially because where we were was K-12 and Linden is K-8. My kid got his butt served in the Academic area but the teachers worked with him closely to get him up to par and now he's excelling. -Not once has a teacher or admin not heard out my request or concern without action and/or empathy. -My middle schooler having some crazy great relationships with his teacher, like asking me to have them for dinner. -Strings Program has changed my Son's life. These relationships support my family to thrive in so many ways. I appreciate the efforts of the school in these seriously challenging times. I'll say, it's not utopia and it's not perfect but when I got up in there and reached out, did my part many came to meet me there. I think I'll stop there.

When I saw my previous schooling only had 1 rating and it was for 1 star I felt the need to express…read moremy opinion as a graduated student of the Ensworth School. I came to Ensworth last minute to attend high school my freshman year. They welcomed me in with open arms and did not brag at all about their success but let the school and there students speak for itself. Yes, this school is very exclusive Pre 1st - 12th but it isn't for no reason. I cannot even begin to explain how phenomenal the faculty and staff is at Ensworth. I can go back and visit many of my teachers and converse about my endeavors and the growth of the school. They truly care. Also the college counseling department is very helpful with the students college application process. In addition, academically I was more than prepared for college. Anyone to say any different probably comes from a rival school which is natural. As a student I use to hear it all the time. If you do not want to believe me look at where our graduating students are attending school and their accomplishments just in high school. For example, out of my graduating class of 105, 3 students where accepted to Harvard and that is just the beginning. The facts are indisputable.

In the last year, some of the most involved parents at Eakin pulled up stakes in public education and opted to shell out 10K to escape the increasing physical tensions and gaps as Nashville fails to invest in public education. I digress....so, you'll be paying more for education than you thought you would!! And SBA is a good balance between the crazy expensive USN (20K) and your kid joining either the Bloods or the Crips in 4th grade (I jest....sort of). The school is Catholic, but truly more accepting of other religions than Catholic schools use to be. They have mass on Holy Days and religion class, but often religion class is writing notes to sick school mates or families. The high points of the school are location, curriculum and and administration. The math program is particularly strong and they have opportunities for kids to do advanced work in smaller classes. The school is small and mostly clean. The small footprint makes it hard to have too many large group meetings. Areas that could use attention IMO are gym/health, getting rid of some of the old school teachers and the aftercare program needs an overhaul with some actual activities. Parents are generally pretty involved and the school does a really good job of having a unique identity in spite of the fact that kids come in with Vandy parents from many neighborhoods. They offer buses for a fee and a summer program as well. All in all this is a great school for a fraction of the cost of many other local private schools. The teachers and administration have a real 'can do' attitude and the kids seem to flourish is almost all arenas.

We visited many, many schools before deciding on SBA and we have never regretted our decision to enroll our children. They have many wonderful extra-curricular activities such as art, lego club, boy and girl scouts, cross country, volleyball, swim team and the list goes on. The staff,teachers and curriculum are absolutely stellar. Our children are excited about learning again! Plus, every grade level gets TWO outdoor recesses during the day which my kids love! They have had great transitions to a new school and have made many friends. The parents and staff are welcoming and there is a general sense that they are glad we are there and want our children to excel. If you are in the market for a K-8 school in Nashville, it just doesn't get any better than SBA.

Every teacher and staff member in this place, including the principal, are rock stars. I have a kid that needs additional interventions to catch up, and another that is moving well beyond his grade level, and they are both supported educationally with care and professionalism. School counseling support is excellent. It is insanely diverse in every way shape and form, and no matter who you are or where you come from, you will be welcomed into the community here. It is a public school, so it lends itself to the general struggles of public schools everywhere, but I wouldn't want my kids anywhere else. It is a lottery school, so you can lottery in from the outskirts.
