Niche Reviews
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
3/22/2025
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.
2/20/2024
Ellis has amazing faculty and you can always talk to the teachers. Students are definitely prepared to go into college.
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...
