Has really good academics, fairly good teachers and a good college counseling department. It's a pretty small school, not much school spirit, not very diverse . Students are very competitive and also very rich.
5/13/2024
Its overall a good school. It severely lacks school spirit and isn't very focused on STEM courses—much better for students more focused on humanities—but it's a good school with good amounts of competition. It also lacks diversity as there is a huge population of white folks, followed by Asian people. There is extremely limited black and latino representation, not only among students, but among faculty as well.

Blake is an incredible school for many reasons and for me the top would be the talent of its educators. Blake develops independent learners and fosters a curiosity of life long learning. We found Blake to be diverse and open to evolving for its students and faculty. They are committed to their families and there is a deep sense of community. The students test scores alone boast excellence. We were not originally open to the idea of a private education for our children but the experience for us has been priceless. The low student to teacher ratios ensure your child will be engaged and supported based on their needs. When touring other private schools Blake stood out. We love that they prioritize children's mental health and wellness- Children regularly meet with their counselors and are immersed in nature. The passions of their educators is undeniable. The buildings are kept immaculate and their safety/ security is next level. I encourage anyone to visit Blake who may be curious.

Everything has been sl...

Exceptional school in every way. This is an elite , rigorous program that provides outstanding experience. By elite I mean in the sense of elite academic performance. It’s sensitive to diversity and inclusion. The students have a close relationship with their classmates, like extended family. The te...

Blake has really been a great place for our kids, and especially during Covid, they were well prepared with distance learning and hybrid models that evolved with the current pandemic status. A high percentage of the kids are involved in music and sports, which is open to anyone who is interested. Th...

Great 20th century approaches but so far behind 21st century curriculum and programing. Public schools in the area are superior in all aspects.
