For several years, my daughters have been attending Hillcrest Academy, with great success. The student to teacher ratio is excellent, nearly 3:1. The focus is on academics so that students advance a bit beyond public. My daughters are beyond their slightly older cousins, in a nearby public school. Challenging and encouraging is the environment. Savvy and supportive are the teachers. Caring and kind are the other parents. My girls are excelling here, without the worries and drama of public school problems today, myself having a public background in MA. They are strong and confident, happy and healthy, challenged and beyond. I would place them at Hillcrest again in a heartbeat.
