We love Garden School. Our daughter has attended for many years and loves her teachers, her friends and the community as a whole. She is challenged by supportive faculty who come to her games and cheer her on after a full day of teaching. This is a special place and we are thrilled to have this school in our life. Highly recommend.

I've been at my school for 15, going on 16 years now. I now actually appreciate how it is. Both of my parents work here, and the school is now preparing me for college. It has now had many upgrades and renovations, making it the best I have ever seen!

If you want your child to go to a school with a friendly atmosphere and one where everyone knows each other, then Garden School is the place. I've been in Garden since the pre-k and I had made most of my friendships here, and I still talk to the friends that left Garden. In terms of academics its pretty good and the teachers will make sure that you know the material. Everyone treats each other like family here and I would suggest parents to take their children here for a education.

Our daughter has attended Garden School for a long time and loves her experience immensely. She has great teachers who know her well and challenge her while being incredibly supportive.
