Parent: The MCDS faculty is truly exceptional -- they bring expertise, passion, and a sincere interest in your student to everything they do. My children have received an outstanding education, but they have also developed important life skills including leadership, grit, teamwork, and compassion. We started at MCDS in Pre-K because we wanted our children to love to learn and we wanted them to have subjects like science, art, music, and Spanish that are not offered in local elementary schools. All three of my children, with very different interests, decided to stay through MCDS High School because of the exceptional teachers who believe in them and because of the supportive and inspiring environment. The IB program is excellent and truly fosters critical thinking and a love of learning. MCDS is a treasure of a school!... Read 31 reviews

Alum: I attended The Williams School (TWS) in Ghent from second to eighth grade. It is without a doubt the most special and most rewarding educational experience I have had throughout my academic career which, to date, spans an undergraduate degree and a graduate degree. Small class sizes foster deep, long-lasting connections with peers, teachers, and other faculty and stimulate creative learning across the board. Faculty at TWS truly go above and beyond for each student and work tirelessly to make sure each student's individual needs are met. Their dedication builds a level of trust in other and in self that further empowers students to be proactive not only in their education, but also in their personal and social development. TWS provides extracurricular opportunities during a pivotal developmental period that, at larger schools, students may frankly not have the opportunity to fully experience (athletics, forensics, music); students are completely immersed. Truly a magnificent school!... Read 9 reviews

Parent: Oakcrest has been a wonderful place for my daughter to learn and grow. Since she arrived in 8th grade, she has grown and blossomed into a more Godly, confident and well-learned young lady. Oakcrest is a rarity in this area: an academically rigorous school that also puts a premium on Godly character development. Plus, Oakcrest truly looks to partner with parents in the education of their daughters, and has many events planned to grow and strengthen parents and families throughout the year - a win/win for all of us! The teachers and support staff are amazing, as is the new campus. Everyone connected with this school from top to bottom is amazing! If you are seeking a challenging academic environment for your daughter, where she can make life-long friends, grow in her faith, and have her character formed for THE BETTER - Oakcrest is your place. Our family is forever blessed because of this school!... Read 129 reviews
