Parent: My children have been attending Riverdale for the past 7 years and we have been extremely pleased with the level of education our little ones receive. The teachers are knowledgeable and caring, the classes are small, and the administration is responsive. Your child isn’t just a number at Riverdale, they’re family. I would highly suggest this school for anyone looking to place their child at a school that will allow your child to flourish!... Read 147 reviews

Parent: All the teachers and everyone at the front desk are friendly, & the kids are very sweet and seem kind to one another. Very apple pie, as elementary school should be. There is a community garden and ice skating. The parent group is very organized and puts together a lot of events for the students through-out the year, including a student theater production. The students learn reading maybe a bit too early based on most recent research, but there are advanced math and reading programs for older kids, which is great. Our kids love it there....

Parent: Irving Elementary has been an excellent school for my two children. The teachers are caring, kind, and patient and go above and beyond to make sure each child is successful. The staff and principal all work very well together. The principal is especially wonderful. There is a diverse student body. Many fun activities are held for the community, including a lip sync battle and International Day. I think the "B" rating is inaccurate. My children went to a few "higher rated" schools before Irving and are much happier and more challenged at Irving. Can't recommend this school enough.... Read 1 review

Parent: We are grateful that all four of our kids received an excellent education and graduated from MCS. The faculty and staff at the school are absolutely outstanding—they care deeply for the students and set high standards for them academically. Discipleship is a high priority, with mentored groups, regular chapel, and times of worship. The elective offerings are diverse, especially for a small school, and fine arts, particularly music, is stellar. Sports are not my thing, but even I have observed an excellent program that focuses as much on character and kindness as on performance and winning, with teams that advance to compete in state tournaments every year. Social issues, making friends, and being part of a community was better for some of our kids than others—but that had more to do with the other students and parents than with faculty or staff. Overall our experience was positive and we now are glad to have 4 grandchildren attending the school. Highly recommended!!... Read 20 reviews

Parent: We switched to Sheridan during the pandemic joining a small community that focused on the safety of our children while limiting the disruption to their education. The administration did a stellar job. What truly stands out is how well rounded a Sheridan education is. In addition to the more traditional academics, its arts and music instruction as well as its focus on diverse communities through the student clubs is truly exceptional. We chose a K-8 school because of the added focus on the middle school years which can be difficult transition years. As the school skews young the older kids don’t grow up too fast. This is a gentle school. Middle school students mentor the lower school students. My son loves his mentor and he looks forward to becoming a mentor to a lower school student himself. Finally, Sheridan is a school that builds confidence. In 7th grade, students lead their own high school selection under the guidance of their teachers. This is incredibly empowering!...
