We appreciate the diversity including learning differences and neurodiversity. A welcoming school and friendly community. Students are challenged and matriculate to top colleges.

While my son attended George, he suffered a concussion on the football field. The coach never called me as the parent to notify me if any injury. They continued to allow him to play, although the Dr had said he needed to rest and have time off the field. This was very disturbing. I pulled my son out of football and the school.

Money goes to the wrong places sports facilities are terrible. Sports fields are horrible, unkept, my middle school public field was much better. Food is terrible, I know that I haven't eaten in a few days because it's so bad.

George School was a great place for me. I was there for grades 9-12 and would do it all over. There were some great teachers, coaches and a diverse campus community of students who wanted to learn. Notably, many of the teachers graduated from George School and have taught there for decades. The clas...
