It could be worse, but it is definitely not my favorite. The teachers are very provoking and they do not know anything

The Ellis School is a great school to show girls that they can thrive and not let their gender discourage them. Because the school has small classes, teachers are able to work closely with students ensuring that they get the help that they need. The school doesn't not have a very diverse population and it often may be difficult for students of minority groups to find community within the greater Ellis community.

Ellis is like a college-level experience for K-12. The curriculum is top-notch and the focus on women's achievements and empowerment sets girls up for success. The education my daughter is getting at Ellis is incomparable.
I have been a parent for over 15 years at Ellis. The school has transformed both of my daughters, but for two distinct and different reasons. My one daughter was very introverted and hesitant to take risks. She blossomed at Ellis with the caring and dedicated staff. My other daughter has truly a lov...
When my daughter was enrolled in public school for 1st and 2nd grade, she was in a class of 32 children, bullied, punched in the stomach by a fellow classmate, and generally ignored by teachers unless she was upset or crying. As a result, she had trouble sleeping, generally disliked school, and we w...
