Clearview Sudbury School

This is a fantastic democratic, self-​governed environment that allows students to explore on their own terms. How much better can childhood and «schooling» get?! For my child, this school saved us in more ways than one, particularly our sanity and souls. I am extremely grateful that a little human being can have multiple ways to discover themselves without fear of being chastised by being a person of curious intellect. Unfortunately, the current condition of schools leaves many parents feeling worried, anxious, and unsure. I say, try allowing a child the space, time, and patience to understand the world on their terms, challenge what it means to be a parent in today’s space. Sudbury provides this dynamic! As someone who studies and conducts research in the field of education and special education, I know what it means to feel disparate, overwhelmed, and conflicted; choosing to do things differently meant asking «what will work best for my child?» and, being honest with the answer. The public school system was not working, we tried. We are headed on our third year at Sudbury.

My son has been attending Clearview for one year. This has been the best year of his life (9 years). The staff is smart and caring. The atmosphere is peaceful. The kids are confident and inquisitive. If you are looking for an alternative to our failing public school system, definitely check out Clearview!
