This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
11/30/2025
I really like it. The community is close-knit and everyone knows everybody else because of the small class size. It being all girls and having a uniform is also nice, because then everyone is less focused on their appearance. They do have some trouble keeping teachers around for longer than 2-3 years and the head of school situation is complicated.
6/7/2025
It could be worse, but it is definitely not my favorite. The teachers are very provoking and they do not know anything
4/15/2025
It is a great school, we have just continued to downgrade in our diversity, and the way the faculty and staff treat people of color.
GreatSchools Reviews
1/10/2022
I graduated from Ellis, and the single year I attended was one of the best of my entire education, including college and law school. It has rather shocked me to read the negative reviews placed here, but from the poor level of literacy in the reviews themselves, I suspect they are written by a jealo...

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.
7/17/2015
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...
7/16/2015
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...
