2/11/2026
My experience at Knox has been extremely memorable. This school has brought me so many great things to my life - such as my friends, new experiences, and great academics. The culture and traditions at Knox are like no other. Some of my best memories have been here. The environment and people are so welcoming and like a second home. I recommend anyone looking for a second family to come to Knox.

Knox made me feel at home when I was looking for one. I was in my public school and knew I wanted to achieve more academically and athletically. I thought I couldn't accomplish that at my old school, but I knew I could with Knox -- and I did.

The best thing about Knox are the teachers, all the teachers on the campus know all the students and make it a point to become close to everybody. I am away from my parents, but having these teachers are like having another family in US.

Our son is challenged, nurtured and has a lot of opportunities for growth even though this is a small school. The administrators here are always accessible and respond qui...

When my daughter was in 6th grade she transferred to Knox from public school. Best decision I ever made. Small class size and teachers who care have brought out the academic excellence in my child. Beautiful campus. We are lucky to be part of the Knox family.
8/26/2021
Starting with the head of School, both the recently resigned and the current have faculty stretched so thin often having them work several positions or taking on too many classes, some outside their field of expertise, which as you can imagine is not a good for the student. I know first hand that th...
