My child has been at Chapin since pre-K and is now in the fourth grade. We chose Chapin because of its dedication to building and nurturing our child's character and academic development. We couldn't be happier with our choice. The faculty, administration, and the Chapin community are one of a kind.

An outstanding school that will empower your child to grow to their maximum intellectual abilities while instilling values that will guide them through life.

The teachers are top notch! They dialed in on our child and know exactly where to introduce appropriat...

Chapin provides an excellent education, we have a daughter in kindergarten who started in Pre-K and it has been a wonderful experience this far. Chapin's focus on its core values, and small class sizes have really benefitted my daughter. The teachers do a phenomenal job of communicating with parents...

Worst experience ever at Chapin's Pre-K program. From the first month, it was clear that the lack of teacher attention created an and unsafe environment. My child was hit multiple times by other students, and nothing was done to address the incidents or safety of my child. There was no communication...
