We've moved around so my kids have attended several different schools before selling in at Stowe. We love it. Class sizes seem smaller and everyone- from the front office to the principal- is genuinely interested in the students success. I feel like i could bring any concern i had directly to the faculty and they would be non-judgmental and helpful...(although we've yet to encounter problems!)

I give it an above average rating because the teachers are really god! They communicate very well with the parents and are very hands-on teaching. The staff is all good except for the principal.
