Phillips Exeter Academy

  Rating 4.33 out of 5  290 reviews

Alum: The most formative years of my life were spent at Exeter, four to be exact. The school gave the environment to discover who I really was and now am. It truly has been a family to me and now, 50 years later, it still feels that way. Over the intervening years I have served in multiple alumni capacities, from chairing local/regional associations to serving on the Board of Trustees. The school isn’t for everyone, but for those that are up for self-discovery at the highest levels, this is it!...Read 290 Reviews

The Governor's Academy

• Private School•
• BYFIELD, MA•

  Rating 4.25 out of 5  63 reviews

Parent: My son is currently a senior at Governor's and has had a fantastic experience! It truly is a very special place and we are so grateful he has had the opportunity to attend...The academics are definitely tough, but Governor's finds a way to create balance. There are prep schools out there that are so rigorous kids are stressed out and depressed. I distinctly recall touring one elite school which had an entire floor of a building dedicated to counseling offices because kids were so stressed out. That is not the case at Govs. Balance is important in life and Govs makes a conscious effort to explicitly weave that into the experience. ...I highly recommend Governor's to any parent looking for a school which will not only prepare your son or daughter for college, but one that will encourage growth on many levels.Read 63 Reviews

  Rating 4.35 out of 5  48 reviews

Parent: We currently have 2 children ages 6 & 8 at the Lower School. We couldn't be happier with the Teachers, Administration, Volunteers, and total Community at BCA! Our Kindergartener started reading at 5 years of age after entering the start of the school year not knowing all the letters or sounds. Our 2nd Grader is excelling at reading, math, and takes piano offered at the school! The teacher to student ratio is unmatched and the BCA community is personal, available, and supportive. My children's favorite time of the day (besides recess) is bible study. They cannot get enough of the stories! Teachers are able to give their personal attention to those who need it. If you are looking for a school with small class sizes, challenging curriculum, and a culture that nurtures being a good person and doing good for humanity BCA is your school...Read 48 Reviews

Sparhawk School

• Private School•
• AMESBURY, MA•
• PK, K-12
• •
  Rating 4.23 out of 5  22 reviews

Parent: Exceptional! After a number of discouraging school experiences, we found Sparhawk. Our primary concern is having a safe, inclusive, caring environment - Sparhawk absolutely provides a level of attention AND intention that goes above and beyond. They have navigated the COVID situation with transparency and concern, providing resources and focusing on the needs of our children. The curriculum draws from diverse sources, providing robust and engaging project-based learning. The school has a progressive set of values, a credo, that reflects the values of the school and the community it strives to create and maintain. When our child has struggled, he has found multiple outlets for support, from his classroom teacher all the way to the head of school. I feel confident he is learning to to strive and grow because he feels cared for and listened to. He is a neurodiverse 2e kid, and no other place has been able to come close to meeting his needs with as much grace and skill as Sparhawk...Read 22 Reviews

Clark School

  Rating 3.32 out of 5  19 reviews

Parent: We adore the Clark School! Our son started in 6th grade and is continuing all through high school. With individualized plans (yes, for real, not just on paper), small class sizes, and teachers who put their heart and soul into teaching (they're available for the kids to call/email after hours too!), this is the school I had always wanted to find for my son...He has changed from being a not-so-happy-about-school kid to someone who looks forward to his classes and has shed his school anxiety. All with none of the typical middle school drama! Can't recommend them highly enough!Plus, I have to add that their approach to remote learning is beyond a 5-star rating. To say that they have gone above and beyond is an understatement. The kids are engaged, the teachers are engaged, and school continued. No gaps, no drama, and only positive feedback from us.Read 19 Reviews

Triton Regional High School

  Rating 3.53 out of 5  139 reviews

Parent: Triton High School has been a very welcoming and fun place for my kids. There are many club activities; some meet in the morning before school and others in the afternoon. There are sports for all levels of athletic ability. The teachers are genuine in their desire to help students to grasp the material. A number of AP classes are available. If they don't offer it at the school. sometimes they make it available online. While there have been a few hiccups here or there, in general, attending Triton has been a positive experience for my family. If I were to offer any recommendations for improvement, I would suggest more options/support for high ability learners (especially in the elementary school grades) and guidance counselors with more education in supporting students to prepare for and choose colleges...Read 139 Reviews
