Amazing school with awesome teachers. Lots of support for kids with language processing issues, dyslexia and ADHD. Small class sizes and reasonable tuition. Looked at other schools and they are not worth double the price for less: you can't beat the caring environment and STEAM education. It truly does take a Village!

The Village School is a great school. The faculty really cares about our children. They provide a safe and fun environment for our children to learn and grow. I moved my daughters to public school 2 years ago and they begged to go back to The Village School before the first half of the year was over. I am so glad we did. They both love the small classroom sizes which provides them more one on one time with their teachers and feel less like just a number. I know my Girls will continue to reach their goals and find success under the guidance and opportunities they receive at The Village School.
