Prospective Parents: What Families Say About Green School
Chicco Latriele
Mya (Grade 3) and Sasha (Grade 1)
"Mya and Sasha go and come back from school singing and full of joy everyday and they bring it in our home! Thank you to their amazing teachers!"
Lorraine Allen
Sonny (Grade 4)
"I have witnessed such a profound change in my boy's demeanor , he is happier, more engaged, more alive than I have ever seen him... he has a zest for life that has just had the volume turned up to full."
Jeremy Brown
Bella (Grade 2) and Holly (Kindergarten)
"There is not one time when I have visited the Green School and not felt a sense of wonder. And if I feel that, what on earth must it be doing to my children. Truly a special place."
Ross Macfarlane
Erinn (Grade 7) and Ally (Grade 2)
"My school experience was so awful, I spent the next 15 years of my life getting over it. I promised to give my kids something better. I feel I have really found better at Green School."
Lisa Bell
Shea (Grade 8) and Emma (Grade 7)
"I'm grateful that my kids have the opportunity to attend such an innovative school. They get up excited and ready to go each morning. Our experience at Green School has been very positive."
Cynthia Hardy
Carina (Grade 8) and Chiara (Grade 4)
I truly believe that [our children's] successes will be measured by their happiness, and that we, as parents, will only feel successful in our parenting IF our children are happy.
Lise Baker
Zoe (Grade 7)
"It's great to have my children in a school that not only teaches them to care for and honor our planet, but offers experiential learning - studying geology at the top of a volcano, studying rivers, in a river, helping to grow their own food, sitting in a classroom built from natural materials that is open to nature with fresh breezes and sunlight. Why put a child in a concrete box with flourescent lighting when there is a place such as Green School!"
Erika Carpenter
Dillon (Grade 9) and Japhy (Grade 8)
"I woke Dillon up for school the other day and when he came into the kitchen he said, 'When I first woke up I felt that bummed-out feeling about having to go to school, but then I remembered that I was in Bali and I was going to Green School and that feeling went away.' Needless to say that type of comment makes us, as parents, feel like we are on the right track."
Chris Majors
Ira (Grade 3)
"We were seeking the best of both worlds for our son: a modern, English-based curriculum located within an Indonesian rural community. Green School provides that, enabling Ira to learn and grow in ways we had never imagined."
Elvira Wijsen & Eko Riyanto
Isabel (Grade 2) & Melati (Grade 4)
Our children enjoy a wonderful experience every day and it has changed them for the better. They bring these changes into our home. It's just great to be a part of this learning community
