Rating 4.16 out of 5 137 reviews
After retaining an educational consultant and searching the entire DMV for the right independent school, we chose Stone Ridge. We were impressed with the school's sprawling campus and Aquatic Center, but fell in love with the all-girl environment and the school's ubiquitous message of empowerment. Our lower and middle school daughters have already formed wonderful friendships and a love of learning! My middle schooler is constantly challenged in her rigorous curriculum, but as she puts it, "I never knew school was supposed to be fun."
In summary: Best. Decision. Ever.
In summary: Best. Decision. Ever.
This school is amazing! It is challenging academically with a great culture. Everyone is down to Earth, friendly, and supportive. It is nice that the elitism and sense of entitlement that exists at other private schools in the area are almost non-existent here. The students are very well rounded and smart. There were so many recent graduates that got accepted to top 20 colleges. I also love the parent involvement and the new Mater Center. Go Gators!
The lower school is great! We considered another all-girls' school, but Stone Ridge had a better culture/environment with equal if not better academics. The third-grade teachers seem to be better, and they have not disappointed us. The facilities are also much top notch. We are very happy here!
