The Marvelwood School is a great school. Teachers are patient and helpful. My son has only come to this school for half a year. He is thriving with the support of the customized program.

My son attended Marvelwood - unfortunately only for his senior year - we so wish we had found Marvelwood years before. He had the most positive experience for his high school years. The students, faculty and staff were all supportive, kind and engaged. They managed the distance learning so effective...
