Our daughter attended Cedarwood from Pre-K through 7th grade, and we will always be grateful for the years she spent there. Cedarwood is truly a special place where you feel like part of a family. The teachers and staff genuinely get to know each child, their strengths, their personality, and the way they learn best.What we loved most was that Cedarwood offered so much more than academics. From creative, hands-on learning and wonderful family events to opportunities for students to explore their interests, build confidence, and grow in so many different areas, our daughter was always encouraged to be herself and try new things.Cedarwood gave her a strong foundation, wonderful memories, and a community that will always hold a special place in our hearts. We are so thankful for her time there and would absolutely recommend Cedarwood to families looking for a school where their child can learn, grow, and truly feel known.

Our daughter attended Cedarwood from Kindergarten through 7th grade and it was a wonderful experience for our whole family. The school size allows for individual attention for every single student. Every teacher and faculty member knew our daughter's name. It really was like a family. Our daughter got an excellent education and tested into 9th grade classes at Hannan for 8th grade. Love this school and would highly recommend to anyone.
