Community School has the most beautiful campus, and the buildings and classrooms are great. Class sizes are small, with a maximum of 20 students in a class. With 3 required outdoor trips per year, there is plenty of opportunity to enjoy nature and the outdoors. However, there is a lack of diversity, not only in the school but in the town of Sun Valley. All this being said, Community School is a great school and helps to prepare every student for college or wherever they want to go after high school.

A great school. Quality of teaching is consistently top-notch. Teachers have one-on-one relationship with students. Excellent outdoor program. Academic rigor sometimes morphs into students being overworked and stressed, but when this happened with our son , we spoke to teachers and they provided sup...
