As a parent, I could not be happier. With progressive underpinnings, competent teachers, and wide resources, Washburne maintains a culture of respect for the kids, thereby coaxing kids into caring about the development of their own academic abilities. While so many other schools seem designed to kill a student's natural curiosity and love of learning, Washburne works hard to re-awaken it.
