We have been extremely happy with Millwood School. We moved our son there for 5th grade after being at the local public elementary school. We appreciate the focus on written work vs. being on a Chromebook all the time. Our son is so much happier at Millwood.

Small classes are great, but if your child has any type of learning difference the school is incapable of supporting them. They might tell you they can, but that's not true.
