We've provided them with the hard data but this is a place where they can get a sense of the school's culture and environment. Your review will be read and posted by our team within a few days if it meets our guidelines.

Example reviews:

"This school has absolutely changed my son's life! He is a brilliant kid who has a learning disability, and the staff absolutely understands his situation and teaches the way he learns! They are so insightful, understanding and capable, I feel lucky that we are part of that community."

"They have a newly built building which is absolutely gorgeous and very well laid out. In general the staff is caring, but firm. Only bad thing is that parent involvement is not encouraged. Yet!!"

Guidelines:

  • Please be thorough and specific when reviewing a school and try to describe several aspects of the school, rather than focusing on just one. Reviews should be between 10 and 150 words.
  • When it comes to using a teacher or administrator's real name, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." Reviews containing negative comments or accusations about named individuals or individuals identified by title, such as "the principal", will not be posted. If you have complaints or unresolved issues, please contact the school directly. Don't think of this as an opportunity to "vent" and do not state data or facts unless you are sure they are accurate.
  • Do not use offensive language or content - all inappropriate reviews will not be accepted. Write clearly with accurate grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Do not write in all capital letters.
  • Parents and teachers, please write only one review for each school your children attend.
  • Students must be 14 years of age or older in order to write reviews. Students' names will never be displayed for privacy reasons.
