Baker is a superb school with exceptionally strong academics, community and school for the innovative, the curious and the challenge seeking child without all the pressure. Dedication from the leadership, administration and teachers are evident every day with unsurpassed focus and care to each and every child.

The thing I value most about Baker is that it encourages my children to be joyful. They love going to school every day. Baker helps them to be curious and to love learning, and to find wonder in all they do. Kids remain kids, even in middle school. The school's buddy program, where older kids help care for younger kids, helps them stay young, but also teaches them responsibility for each other. The children are kind to each other and are taught to take care of each other, making the school a safe and fun place for them to grow as learners and as people.

The teachers did not support remediation in any way. When my child had a math issue we were told to hire a tutor for $150 per hour years ago. My child was not given the option to get into the Latin subject bc we came in at 7th grade. This school is a joke.

We made the switch to Baker when my daughter was entering 4th grade. The transition was seamless. The kids were welcoming, and the teachers and staff reached out to make sure my daughter's needs were met, both academically and socially. The thing that struck me most about the switch to Baker was the...
