Ravenscroft School

• Private School
• Raleigh, NC
• PK, K-12
• 104 reviews

Parent: After studying and visiting schools in the Raleigh-Cary-Durham area, we find Ravenscroft to be, hands down, the very best. Challenging, engaging academics are a longstanding tradition at this 150-plus year old school. The Lead From Here threads that connect academics, character development, athletics and Fine Arts is just one of the school’s cutting edge initiatives. Academics are stellar, Fine Arts opportunities and excellence are unparalleled, athletics are of the highest level, and the personal touch of the school help each student and family know they are known, understood and called to be their very best.

Carolina Friends School

• PK, K-12
• 24 reviews

Senior: I love, love, love Carolina Friends School! It has been truly life-changing for me. Many say that it's an "easy" school--I entirely disagree. To outsiders, it may seem hard to fail, but that is only because the staff is so loving and supportive of their students.

St. David's School

• Private School
• Raleigh, NC
• PK, K-12
• 33 reviews

Alum: St. David's created this community of friends that I will always have to fall back on throughout life. We endured so much together through our schooling experience that we became an incredibly close-knit group of friends, not just peers or classmates- friends. I tried going to another school, public specifically, thinking it would have a wider variety of offerings with more people and a more competitive atmosphere athleticly and academically. I found neither and it was during that year away, my freshman year of high school, that I truly began to understand the level of preparation and trust in ourselves St. David's was equipping us with. Combined with the relationships forged deep in discussion and discovery, this unique combination created an atmosphere that was completely irresistible. I am constantly discovering new benefits from an educational experience at St. David's, even as I go throughout my journey for higher education.
