This was the perfect school for my daughter. I feel so lucky that she was able to attend. The field studies program was her favorite part. It's so thoughtfully done.

I love Sequoyah. I truly would not be the person I am without it. I think that Sequoyah both provides the skills required to succeed from an academic standpoint, but also gives you the tools to grow into the person you want to be. Sequoyah makes brilliant and good people.

I'm a parent of three kids who have been K-12 at Sequoyah, and am a trustee. The faculty have always met my different learners exactly where they are and helped them dive deep in their very different interests - in STEM, art and design, and economics. It has been a great community for both kids and parents to take risks and grow, as it is inclusive and supportive of diversity.

My son had an incredible experience at Sequoyah. What a gift to have a school that is serious about academics but is not so stressful that it makes high school miserable. He made great friends, learned to talk in front of a group and to take charge of his own learning.

I have three kids at Sequoyah, and they have all been at the school since kindergarten (this is our sixth year at the school). I cannot speak highly enough about this school. It's a place where teachers and administrators fiercely guard the experience of childhood and being a kid, while also challen...
