As an alumni myself, I have enjoyed having my girls attend the same place I graduated from. The learning environment is one that you will not find elsewhere. If you are looking for a great education and teachers who give 100% Fuqua School is the place to be.

My children have attended Fuqua School since the age of 3. One has graduated and I couldn't have been more happy with his education preparing him for his collegiate experience. The teachers care about the students and it definitely creates a family feel.

It is better than the local public school option, but that's a low bar. The tuition isn't high, but it's still overpriced for what they deliver.

Terrible unless you wish to develop a kid to be a close minded adult who exudes the culture for which Prince Edward Academy was built many years ago for the purpose of segregation for which they remain very successfully promoting
