The Capitol School provides a wonderful academic and caring environment for all students, family, faculty and staff. There is not a better educational experience that you could find for your family.

This is the best Private school in Alabama. It has won many awards and continues to achieve new heights. I read some of the bad reviews and they were all the same and looked to be written by one person with a vendetta. The Director has won more awards and been featured in more magazines than any other educator in Alabama. She was inducted to the Alabama Education Hall of Fame 3 years ago. If your child fails here, they will fail everywhere.

Our child is in his 2nd year at the Capitol School. We immediately knew this school was a safe and special place for children to learn and grow. I cannot imagine a better place for our child to be.
