Baker is a gem of a school. We transferred our child to Baker from public school when the public school was failing to keep our child safe so they could focus on learning. The minute we walked through the doors we knew Baker was different... everyone was so welcoming and inclusive... they made our child feel a sense of belonging And safety from the day she walked through the doors for her school tour. The academics are thoughtful and focus on hands on learning...the school activities available are also thoughtful to make sure kids get a well rounded experience. Baker teaches children not to be test takers, but to be life long curious learners. Moving our child to Baker was the best choice we made for our family.

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...

his past year (2021) my wife and I enrolled my daughter at Baker for 4th grade. It was a fantastic experience. From the very beginning we, as a family, felt welcomed. Whether it was an initial school tour, or a new student meet and greet, everyone from staff, to the administration, to already enroll...

Each year we are impressed by the faculty's knowledge and commitment. They consistently see the students as individuals and meet them where they are, recognizing social and emotional needs at each stage of development. The 4th and 5th graders pursue special projects based on their own interests and...
