My son and I joined The Pennfield community for this 6th grade year. We were worried it was going to be tough, joining a group of kids who have been together since they were 5, but it was not. My son fit right in and his classmates welcomed him right away. He is on his third and final year at The Pennfield School and it is going to be hard to say good-bye in June.

I could not imagine a better experience for my children. We are so lucky to have found this school. Financially it is a stretch but the school works with us to make it affordable and it is worth every penny!

Small class sizes provide a guarantee that children are known and that they are constantly engaged and challenged. My children love learning, are confident speaking with peers and adults, and seek o...

Micro class sizes are horrible for socialization. Head master is sexist. Privileged kids. No diversity. Massive teacher turnover. Doubt the school will be around much longer.
