Testimonials
The Pathfinder School is many things to many people
“Our kids simply love school. They’re having fun. They’ve made great friends. They look forward to class each day. They’re thriving. It’s an amazing recipe for success!”
—Parent, grades 3 & 5
“We chose Pathfinder because each and every child is cherished and respected. Children blossom and grow, learn and flourish here under the caring guidance of dedicated, professional teachers. Individuality and diversity are celebrated. The arts and academics are integrated, and the curriculum is inviting and stimulating. Learning is valued as a life-long process by all in the school community. There is no other school like Pathfinder!”
—Parent, grade 6
“Pathfinder has created a supportive community focused on offering the best education for our children and helping them discover a love for learning. The end result is the development of self-confident, well-spoken and socially conscious individuals. They are prepared to achieve greatness in the future.”
—Parent, grade 8
“Pathfinder creates an environment that recognizes individuality as part of community, not in opposition to it.”
—Parent, grade 4
"Children spend a lot of time in school, so their school is inevitably and crucially influential to their development no matter what kind of environment it presents—constructive, neutral or destructive. We wanted to find a school community for our children that would reinforce rather than erode our home values. We think life should be full of laughter, curiosity, the joy of learning, responsibility, creativity, compassion, collaborative spirit, confidence, beauty, forward momentum, imagination, leadership, healthy habits, and a love of being outdoors as well as environmental stewardship. Outside our own home, where could we find a community for our children that would share these values? We found our children’s second home at Pathfinder. I know that the adults here—teachers and staff—have the same goals for my children as I do, and I’m actually envious of how much time my children get to spend with these outstanding educators and exceptional individuals!"
—Parent, grade 5 and graduate
"I feel free to call upon the faculty at our school anytime, weekday or weekend, to voice a concern, seek advice, raise a classroom issue, or share an anecdotal story of accomplishment. It’s like having a competent group of allies to assist in the daily challenge that raising children with character poses."
—Parent, grades 3, 8 and graduate
