What people are saying about Metro…

We are so thrilled to have found Metropolitan School House. My kiddo spent 7 years at an excellent public school but alas it was not a good fit as his learning difference could not be addressed in a large classroom. Nor could he access the curriculum, when he was chronically anxious. Metro does an amazing job at accessing a child’s academic, social and emotional needs, a whole child assessment, if you will. Then a plan is crafted to build on the skills and the opportunities. My kiddo has found his joy of learning again and is growing as a young human.

7th Grade Parent

Metropolitan Schoolhouse changed our son’s life. It changed our family’s life. Our son just didn’t fit into your traditional school environment. He struggled with schoolwork and had a hard time making friends. At Metro, he has found his identity. He has a lot of friends now, and he is happy to go to school every day. We looked everywhere for the right fit for our son, and have found Metro to be the only school of its kind. I simply can’t think of a better fit for our son.

6th Grade Parent

Metropolitan Schoolhouse has been such a gift to our family. Our second grader feels confident and happy as a student. He is challenged with work well above his grade level, supported where he needs to be and pushed when appropriate. In the two years he’s been at Metro, he has come into his own, and matured socially and emotionally. He’s excited to go to school each day and comes home with a smile and stories of his day.

2nd Grade Parent

In working with the Metropolitan Schoolhouse as an outside private provider for a student, I’ve been impressed with the team’s interdisciplinary and collaborative process. The school’s unique ability to support academic achievement within the context of social and emotional opportunities offers a learning environment that supports development as a whole.

Metropolitan Schoolhouse has empowered many of my school age clients to successfully reconnect with school—trust their teachers, build meaningful relationships with peers and tackle authentic curriculum. How wonderful to work through daunting challenges, and discover the strength of one’s voice as a successful life-long learner.
