Glenelg Country School Reviews
The teachers love their jobs & make each kid feel valued & appreciated for their unique contributions. My older daughter went from an average student academically w/anxieties about school to getting A’s & being eager to go to school. More importantly, she now realizes her potential rather than sinking lower into self-doubt. Both kids felt a sense of belonging & formed strong friendships right away.
I love the smaller class sizes, the positive energy of the teachers & staff, the beautiful campus & the independence entrusted to the kids. Most noteworthy, is that each student is seen as an individual & gets a personalized learning experience rather than the "one size fits all" approach.
