Every single teacher I've encountered at Chadwick cares so much about their students. Not only on a surface or academic level, but on a personal level. I'm consistently amazed by how much effort my teachers and advisors put in to making sure I am doing well and have all the resources available to succeed.

While the school campus is pretty, and the teachers are nice, there are a few problems. First, while the campus is big, you are restricted to a certain area of it. I entered in sixth grade and everyone seemed to have formed such tight groups, so playtime is a nightmare. P.E. is overcompetitive, and the cafeteria food isn;t all that healthy. ALways some people slacking off in class, with nothing in their heads, homework is manageable, but you have to wake up at six thirty to not be late.

As an African American student and female, in a predominantly white school, I felt respected and included by the staff and faculty. I was president of my 9th grade class, which speaks for it self. I will forever be a part of the Chadwick community. They have molded me into the person I am today.

We have only experienced high school at Chadwick, but it has been a 5-star experience from day 1 for our family. Both of our children (freshman and senior now) felt like members of the community before they even started and now cannot imagine being anywhere else for school. The academics are rigorou...

Our family currently have children in middle and elementary school. We have been very impressed with Chadwick's commitment to fostering the growth and development of the entire child and strength of character, with a strong foundation of core values. The engagement of the teachers and knowledge of e...

We currently have two children at Chadwick. Both children started in Kindergarten and we have been at the school for 9 years as parents. We chose Chadwick because we knew that our children would be exposed to every opportunity in a safe environment to a school that adhered to a set of Core Values. T...
