Current Resident: I have lived in the town of Shelby my entire life and I wouldn't change it for any amount of money. This town is small but the community makes it feel so much bigger. Almost everyone here has generations of family who have placed roots in Shelby. Its hard to find people you don't have some kind of connection to. Shelby has always had a really active community and Christian lifestyle. There are churches on every corner and favorite restaurants lining the streets. Recently, construction has been done to open more shops and businesses. The locals here are very supportive of their local businesses. I have truly enjoyed growing up here and being active in the Shelby community.... Read 62 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

Current Resident: I absolutely love everything about Lawndale. It is a small town, with only 1 stop light, but has everything we need within a two mile radius, from stores, to restaurants to coffee shops, apparel shops, a dance studio, jiu-jitzu training center, gym, all three grade level schools, hardware stores and so much more.

Parent: Field has been a life-changing school for my daughter (who just entered the 6th grade there this past fall). From Day 1, the faculty and other students made her feel at home and a part of the community. Many schools encourage students to bring their "whole selves" into the school but Field really means it. The community is tight-knit and there is so much JOY at the school. The art and theater are incredible and the sports have been a great experience for my daughter, with the older girls on the team guiding & supporting the younger girls. The academics have also blown me away. The teachers are engaging, supportive, and fun. And they go deep into their subjects. The faculty not only has a great sense of the students' academic lives, but of their social-emotional lives, as well, and they work hard to make sure the students are thriving in ALL areas of life. We feel so grateful to have found Field! It is truly a special place.... Read 51 reviews

Alum: I would say it was overall a good experience. I was in this school system from K-12. Elementry and Middle school provided good teaching staff, extracurriculars, and resources for women in STEM. The high school experience was illuminating, with classes becoming segregated by class and race. The system was very biast and pushed certain students above those who historically had not attended college.... Read 12 reviews
