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.
