i agree with the reviewer who said this is not the school for you if you are looking for a good private school. The school is geared more toward kids who can't function in a traditional school environment, have sensory issues, or learn differently. There is no structure, they hand out As like candy, and no academic rigor. If you want a lot of touchy freely talk about peace and harmony, this school is for you. If your want your kid to learn to operate in a competitive world, this is not the place. Unless you want them to live in a commune or your basement for the rest of their lives.

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.
