Our family has had a truly wonderful experience at The Kipling School. From the very beginning, it was clear that this is a place where children are known, valued, and supported as individuals. The teachers are phenomenal. They are deeply invested in their students and take the time to understand how each child learns best. Our son has grown not only academically but also in confidence, independence, and self awareness. The level of care and attention he receives is something you simply cannot put a price on. The administration is equally exceptional. They are approachable, thoughtful, and flexible, and they genuinely partner with families. Any time we have had a question or needed support, the response has been prompt, compassionate, and solutions focused. You truly feel like you are part of a community, not just a number. Academically, the rigor is impressive. Kipling challenges students in a meaningful way while still meeting them where they are. The curriculum encourages critical thinking, curiosity, and a love of learning rather than rote memorization. At the same time, the school places a strong emphasis on emotional growth, character, and social development. They focus on educating the whole child, not just academic outcomes. Our son looks forward to going to school, and as a parent, that speaks volumes. We are incredibly grateful for the teachers, leadership, and overall environment at The Kipling School. It has been a blessing for our family, and we could not recommend it more highly.

School administration is unorganized and incompetent when it comes to child care. Food quality is terrible and facilities are unkept and of poor quality compared to other similar schools in the area. Avoid at all costs.

My three year old absolutely loves her classmates and teachers. She is well taken care of at The Kipling School. The wait list is unfortunate however having a wait list that never has spots open up is actually a testament to the quality of the school, because it means students don't leave and there is no turnover. The wait list is worth the quality of care my child receives.
