#14 Best Private K-12 Schools in Atlanta Area
Parent: Academically, we love the approach to learning and assessment. Teachers give detailed feedback and assess with a rubric. Students know what’s expected in advance. Our oldest (who can be an overachiever) keeps working to achieve the "advanced" description. Our youngest (who can be comfortable doing the minimum) can see how to keep working and stretch. From a community standpoint, we love that MV values diversity of thought, backgrounds, and experiences. Our children are learning to find connections and celebrate differences. Lastly, we love the school norms: start with questions, assume the best, share the well, fail up, and have FUN! In February we were away for a long weekend with another family who attends a school out of town. Their children’s holiday was one day longer than ours and we had to leave early. We thought our children would be upset to miss a day of the trip and were shocked when our youngest responded, “honestly, it’s really okay, I actually like school.” Thank you MV!... Read 115 reviews
