Terrible. Very entitled staff, very difficult to deal with, not transparent or truthful about many things. I wish I had never enrolled there.

I have twins, a boy and a girl, enrolled at Oak Terrace since kindergarten. They love the school, teachers and courses. The school open their mind to other language and culture, keeping them grounded and open to new experiences.

A+. We are thrilled to give our children the gift of a multicultural, dual language school.

This school is being compared to monolingual schools. This is a dual language school. Test scores will be lower when students are learning 2 languages. This is a top notch school. We are very happy at Oak Terrace.
