Crossroads Academy is a rare gem of a school, offering both a rigorous educational environment and an engaged community. I currently have one child in the lower school and one child in the middle school, and each is receiving a stellar education in a supportive environment, with wonderful teachers and peers. Crossroads' Core Knowledge and Core Virtues programs are giving my children the strong foundation in learning and character that they will need to succeed. Crossroads is fantastic!

Crossroads has been the perfect balance of comfort and discipline for my son. At an age where distractions can easily overcome learning, the faculty have patiently helped him develop study skills, gain greater attention to detail, and understand the importance of quality work. Academic vigor is blended with personal growth, which is a recipe for creating a strong student who is ready for an exciting middle school experience and adolescent years.

Our sons attended K-5 and are better young men, today, for the academic foundation, public speaking skills, and character education. The CA teachers are superb. Go visit this school.

The combination of strong academics and a focus on virtues are the pillars upon which this gem of a school was built. It has so much going for it, from many world-class Faculty to a caring and supportive community, to the 140-acre campus, to the new Middle School... we have three children at Crossroads and are so glad to have found it. Highly recommended - visit and you'll understand!

Crossroads Academy was recommended to us by a friend when our family moved to the Upper Valley from eastern PA. Our two children were happy at Crossroads from the beginning and we all felt welcomed into the community right away. The teachers are fabulous, the curriculum is engaging, and the campus is simply beautiful. What's not to love?!
