I could not recommend the country school more! From the teachers to the owner, they are genuine, caring, and truly want whats best for every child who attends. I loved our time with the country school!
Lacey BahnsAug 18, 2024
I am writing this with a smile and a tear in my eyes as we are about to say goodbye to the Country School, and it's amazing teachers after 5 years. We started Country School in the Summer of 2018 when our oldest was 18 months old, it was our first "real school" experience and watching our son thrive, learn and make friends was an amazing experience. We lived through Covid with everyone, we made friends, we shared laughs and tears and felt like we belonged. We saw our second son start with the Nursery class in 2022 and now it is just 7 more days and he will be done. He wakes up in the morning asking if there is school today and he will tell you that Miss Sam knows everything and that she is his best friend. We will miss everyone at Country School dearly and we will continue to send parents looking for a save place for their kids to grow, learn and make friends your way. Thank you for everything. PS. We will be back for camp of course - because that's awesome too! ☀️

The Country School is such a great school and camp with amazing nurturing teachers/counselors, an impressive facility, & great activities. My kids were always excited to go! The owner and entire staff went above and beyond to help make it fun, comfortable, and a great place to learn. I would highly recommend it!

Caring and supportive teachers nurture our young ones in a delightful and clean environment that my son is so happy to return to each day.
K LegareMay 21, 2024
We love The Country School! The teachers and staff are so caring and attentive, and our daughter has loved it for preschool and for camp every summer.
Olivia BergerMay 20, 2024
The staff is so highly trained, and amazingly warm and gentle with the children. I have had kids in their programs for over 5 years and will only stop when they age out of the programs.
