All Saints Episcopal Day School

I just joined All Saints last year as a teacher and I'm so glad I did. The teacher community is incredibly supportive and the students are bright and good-natured. I especially value the socioemotional support given to students. In Homeroom, students are able to build community with their grade-level peers by sharing about their personal lives in morning meetings and working together on engaging activities to get the day started. In Spirituality, students explore virtues like Gratitude and Resilience by creating short lessons with their Homeroom and sharing their learning with the broader community of students and faculty once a week. This nurturing environment is coupled with rigorous academics. Elementary and Middle School teachers provide rich IB-aligned lessons where students regularly connect abstract academic concepts to the real world. After working in charter schools in Brooklyn for 7 years, being a part of the All Saints community has been a refreshing change that has refueled my love of teaching. I'm so excited to send my son here in the coming years because I know he will be well taken care of at All Saints.

Our two sons are currently enrolled in Pre-K and Nursery and we have been so thrilled to be part of the ASEDS community. The early academics have been an impressive balance of nurturing and rigorous and we have been very impressed to see the progress and feel confident that it will continue. The teachers and staff are always available and the communication is clear and direct, something we truly appreciate at this early stage of their education. We cannot praise the school enough and we are thankful to have found its educational home.

Our child has been with ASEDS since Pre-K 4. We love our school community including the teachers, students, and families. ASEDS embraced the IB program to its already rigorous curriculum. More importantly, our school emphasizes serving others and leadership. This matters for our family as we believe that becoming a well-rounded person is important - more so than being just intellectually developed. We have made life-long friends through our school, which has made our life away from home a lot easier. Teachers are all nurturing and understand each child's strengths and weaknesses. There are two math classes being run so each child can learn at their pace. Our child showed a strong interest in creative writing at an early age. The teachers recognized this and gave our child the chance to participate in classes with students who were in 2 grades higher. Our school does a great job identifying talent and provides all the possible support to help develop it further. School provides many opportunities for students from different grades to interact and work together. Students are also taught to embrace and respect others at an early age (an example includes telling our kids to not yuck other people's yum - this helped young students to embrace other types of snacks/lunches their friends brought to school). Our school leaders including our Head of School and the Board also communicate effectively and frequently. This was especially helpful and much needed as we navigated through the pandemic together as a community. There is abundant communication from teachers in addition to the Mid-Week Memo so that all families are well informed of all of the school happenings. We could not be happier.

I have been at All Saints since nursery and am now going into fifth grade. I love going to school here because the teachers are so supportive of all that you do. Students are encouraged to try their personal best with everything.

I am going into Grade 4 at All Saints Episcopal Day School. I have been there since I was 3 years old. I really like art, writing and math. My favorite art project this year was making sculptures of Shakespeare characters. I made Hecate from MacBeth. My friends at All Saints are lots of fun and great classmates. My teachers at All Saints all have their own personality and make the classes not boring.

I am a student going into Grade 6 and I have been at All Saints since Nursery. I really enjoy this program because every day I learn something new and exciting. I am always confident that the information I learn is going to help me. I might use it to do better on a test, or use it later in life. I also enjoy how many extra activities and special classes there are. One more thing that I enjoy about All Saints is that there are always teachers or other people to help you if you are struggling, and need some extra support. All Saints is a great community from learning to being around genuine people.

The teachers and staff are wonderful. The curriculum is strenuous but students feel complete support in their need to accomplish their goals and in gaining information. The sense of community is wonderful and the schools' commitment to service and having students aware of the world around them is great. Their learning inside and outside the classroom is hands on and their field trips are chosen well to enrich their lives in ways most other schools in the area do not. My two children couldn't be more excited about going to school every day. For this reason, I highly recommend this school.

All saints is a wonderful community driven school. The students and teachers share a bond unlike any school I've seen. The service projects, field trips, and individualized attention go above and beyond the scope of most schools. The small class size and focus on rigorous academics makes All Saints a wonderful fit for any serious student. I highly recommend this institution and a short visit will allow you to see what sets the school apart from many other prestigious schools in the area. I thoroughly enjoy working for All Saints. The staff is a great match for the energy and highly motivated student body. Also, All Saints completes more service work than many other similar private schools in NJAIS.

All Saints children are encouraged to be inquisitive and compassionate and make a difference in the classroom and community. I have seen strongly academic children being challenged and under performing students supported. The music and art teachers are outstanding and really round out the academic program
