Ashbrook Independent School Extended Care Program

Our child is now in her third year at Ashbrook, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She truly loves going to school each day. As parents, we’ve grown to love so much about the school as well. Ashbrook has proven to be an exceptional place for learning, growth, and connection. One of the biggest draws for us has been the strong sense of community. And it’s clear that the school values not just academic development, but building meaningful relationships among students, families, and staff as well. It’s been a wonderful fit for our family. I highly recommend Ashbrook to any parent in the Corvallis area wanting the absolute best for their child.

We’ve had a wonderful experience at Ashbrook! The teachers are caring, dedicated, and truly passionate about helping every child succeed. The staff creates a warm and welcoming environment where students feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. We transitioned our son out of daycare early to start at Ashbrook's preschool program, and are so thankful we did- he has grown exponentially in the past year! He is being taught real world solutions, how to trust himself and rely on himself, and we parents have been given tools and insight to making him a more confident and competent kid. The school offers a great balance of academics, creativity, and character-building. From engaging classroom lessons to fun extracurricular activities, our child looks forward to going to school (mostly) every day. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and involved. We’re so grateful to be part of a school community that truly puts children first!

Our two boys have attended Ashbrook these last couple of years and we could not be happier. All of the staff are great. It feels like a community and our kids have really grown in many positive ways.

During the last month or so of every summer I always was readily awaiting the next school year and all of the fun experiences and conversations to be had. It didn't happen the year after I left, I wasn't as excited, if at all, to be going to school again. Ashbrook is like a home away from home. It's technically school, but also not really. It's different. It's more loving and caring. There's an overwhelming sense of family, everyone knows each other. Every day I wake up in the morning, I want to be going back to Ashbrook instead of Crescent Valley. Ever since the 6th Grade I dreaded the day that I had to graduate from Ashbrook, and that's not because of the long speech, that's because I didn't want to leave. I look forward to visiting it in the future because they managed to make middle school the best time of my life, and that's a hard job. The only mold to fit into is higher level academics and thinking, it's not your average public school. The curriculum is meant to challenge even the brightest minds. This school also does not tolerate constant behavioral issues as I have witnessed the effects firsthand. TL;DR: This school is great and you couldn't do better if your child cares about actually learning and being engaged.

I loved Ashbrook so much! They challenged me academically, and truly made our class a family. The copious amounts of resources such as the science labs, green house, theatre, and more aided in my learning a great deal.
