My wife and I enrolled our four year old son in Applewild's summer program and Pre-K program in 2023. Next fall he will attend Kindergaten at Applewild as well. We are early in our experience here relative to many but to this point we have nothing but positive feedback to offer about his and our experiences including our son's overall development. His class spends a lot of time outdoors learning about nature by being in it. They are visited often by older grades who teach them various subjects during the year. I loved that my four year old was learning sign language from a third grader. Class sizes are smaller than local public systems and a greater emphasis is put on learning by both experiencing and teaching compared to the local public system. Weekly classroom updates are provided by the teachers and their communication has been wonderful when needed during the year. We are looking forward to watching our son continue to grow and develop at Applewild as the years progress.

There is no other school I would send my student to. I am excited to see the new athletic facility and playground that is being built.
