Parent: I love everything about Templeton Academy! They are very supportive of my son's challenges and provide it when needed. The teachers are team players with the parents as well. The project based curriculum is awesome! It gives the students the chance to learn to work as a team and also use critical thinking skills. The class schedule is unique as well where the student will take 2 courses per semester for 10 weeks and still get all their required credits. Even though school is virtual right now, my son has met some friends. Oh and the class sizes are nice and small. Another thing I love about Templeton is how they praise the accomplishments of their students. My son is featured on their social media pages for winning 2 scholarships for being a philanthropist. I highly recommended Templeton Academy for a middle and high school choice. You won't be disappointed!... Read 26 reviews

Parent: My kids have been attending Basis since before the pandemic, and we are so impressed! Rich academic curriculum, good inclusion of the arts, excellent opportunity for differentiation based on student needs. The teachers are dedicated and so are the parents to the kids' success. While the administration has been bumpy as the school has gotten established (only 5 years old), they earned their stripes during the pandemic. Organized, safety-focused and diligent about communication. We supplement school with sports leagues and scouting outside of school, which many parents do. Easy to do given the extensive choice you have in the DC area. Also appreciate the international study body with impressively bright students from all over the world. A real meritocracy, unlike other private schools that admit based on VIP status or connections/donations. In the next few years, this school will only continue to advance its place in the rankings.... Read 52 reviews

Parent: The Hill School is what every parent dreams a school should be for their child, but most wouldn't believe existed any longer. Hill School teachers are highly skilled educators who continually keep parents involved in their child's education and have the ability to teach students in such a way that they LOVE going to school. Children are given the opportunity to participate in sports, theatre, the arts, etc, with the intended goal of making each child well rounded in all areas of life. In addition, the core curriculum is excellent, with many hands-on experiences and outdoor learning and activities as an integral part of keeping children excited and engaged in the learning process. The faculty and staff are also amazing. Always available to listen and quick to help and solve whatever issues might arise. Hill School is like family, so everyone works together and looks out for one another to keep the Hill School experience a magical one. You and your child/children will LOVE IT!... Read 16 reviews
