“My daughter is thriving at Carlisle School. Small classes and excellent teachers make for a safe and secure learning environment. She is challenged academically and allowed to progress according to her learning style and ability. The most important part is the love and the strong sense of family that is so apparent here.”
“[Transferring to Carlisle] is the best decision we could have made for our boys. Our Chandler has flourished so much. As a parent, nothing makes my heart happier than to feel we made the right move for our child.”
Transferring to Carlisle has been the best decision we’ve made for our son. I appreciate the way he has been welcomed into the Carlisle family. He loves the smaller classes and is thriving in this new environment. He is excited to go to school each day, and we love to see how he is being challenged in the classroom. We also appreciate the focus Carlisle places on the holistic development of the student that goes beyond the classroom.
“We have been very pleased with Carlisle’s methods of teaching. We are truly delighted with how our children are embraced, nurtured, and supported by the staff and teachers. Our children are excited to go to school and learn new things each day.”
“Carlisle School has allowed our son Ben to flourish over the past two years. Our family believes Carlisle brings out the best of each child by leveraging their individual strengths while promoting kindness and leadership skills.”
“Carlisle is important to me because the education given is beyond a typical private school. It is the dream of how education should be, and the character/moral education is helping me raise my daughter into a human being I am so proud of all the way through.”
