TSS has given me my daughter back. I can see the glimmer of light shining bright in her eyes again. We just enrolled this school year, already I see the results. My girl feels safe, confident and appreciated in her school community. These feelings enable her to fully focus on study without the distractions of feeling judged by peers. The TSS school community is modeling and encouraging all the right social skills! I look forward to watching my daughter blossom with in this wonderful family. Thank you TSS!

Our son just graduated from the 8th grade. It is hard to describe just how wonderful the Thaddeus Stevens School has been for him. The school helped mold him into a smart, confident child who is more than ready to tackle the challenges that high school will bring. There are many things that separate the Thaddeus Stevens School from other schools, but perhaps the biggest is the extent that the faculty cares about the student's welfare and the social dynamics in the classroom. They work hard to make sure that every child is supported and that there is no bullying. Because of this, the students have lots of respect for each other and work as a team. Most importantly, the faculty do not wait for problems to happen. They are proactive and make sure that problems are not likely to arise. The education itself is top-notch. So to summarize, the Thaddeus Stevens School gave our son a great education and great social development. It is hard to ask for anything more than that. We are so thankful to have the Thaddeus Stevens School as part of our community.

We switched into TSS last year and it's made such a difference for our whole family. My daughter's review: "They actually treat us like people." She feels respected and appreciated and it's done wonders for her interest in learning and trying new things. We also love that art is a core subject, as well as the emphasis on music, Japanese, and social and cultural awareness. Very much worth in the investment.

TSS is an amazing school. My children love it. The faculty is outstanding to work with and have passion for what they teach. Outdoor science is a hit with all kids. Class trips to Boston, Washington DC, New York City, and Germany. I couldn't ask for a better opportunity for my kids. Parents are encouraged to participate with school activities.

Our children love TSS. They are challenged academically. They are supported socially and emotionally. They feel like the teachers believe in them. They have grown so much and learned so much. I love the small school atmosphere. A family that encourages each other, inspires eachother, and supports eachother. Our children are able to maximize their potential as they prepare for high school and beyond.
