Both my children have been through The Quaker Hill School. Its attributes include, an incredible music program, superior community engagement, and highly qualified and experienced teachers. My only real complaint pick-up and drop off is congested due to the layout of the parking lot and access roads.
All in all its a fantastic school. We never had to worry about our childrens safety, teacher competency, or classroom resources. We highly recommend it.

We moved from the west coast and chose to reside in Quaker Hill due to the reputation of the school. No regrets.

The principal welcomes each student by name every morning at the front entrance. They have developed an environment of inclusion that makes every child feel safe and welcome.

My child has moderate learning challenges that would not qualify for accommodation. However the staff worked with us and recommendations from doctors to adjust standard operations to meet our needs without disrupting the educational process.

The student to teach ratio is 12:1. Student interactions are closely monitored and bullying is not tolerated by staff or students.

Renovated in 2007. It is a beautiful green school with an all day kindergarten. My daughter is in 1st grade and loves going there everyday. The teachers, staff and even the bus drivers really care about the kids. My daughter is excelling in both math and reading. I only have praise for the school.
