Parent Reviews
Both of my kids go there and the oldest has been there for over 3 years. The school has increased in size recently but I think the core values are the same and we are very happy with how are kids are developing - academically, emotionally, and socially. They get a lot of outdoor time, are taught to be independent, confident, and socially aware, and we have received support from the teachers when our kids needed extra care and attention
As parents of a child at The Good Earth school, we had a mixed experience. They have had some growing pains in their first few years. Some examples: not allowing teachers to talk to or email parents without strict oversight, not allowing some teachers to have even a voice in programming, installing many security cameras, not speaking truthfully about several situations with parents, losing several terrific teachers due to poor management, not welcoming any form of PTA. The thread seems to be that of control. I hope they've moved through these issues, as they really love their students and the theory behind the program is great.
