The Clariden School

Our daughter entered Clariden as a 3 year old at Cougar Prep. She is about to complete Kindergarten this month. We are ecstatic with her experience at Clariden. She has learned so much from her teachers over these three years. Clariden staff have given her so much love and support to become the confident and loving girl she is today. We highly recommend the school.

The Clariden School has been a wonderful experience. The teachers are dedicated and truly care about each student''s growth. The community is warm and welcoming, and the academics are rigorous yet supportive. I would highly recommend it to any family looking for a strong, close-knit school environment.

The Clariden School offers a thoughtfully balanced educational environment that emphasizes both academic rigor and character development. What stands out most is the individualized attention students receive-teachers are deeply invested in each child''s growth, both intellectually and personally. The small class sizes foster meaningful engagement, allowing students to build confidence and curiosity in a supportive setting. Beyond academics, the school does an excellent job encouraging critical thinking, creativity, and leadership skills. It''s a strong choice for families seeking a nurturing yet challenging educational experience.

We were looking for another school for our daughter who was starting her Junior year of high school. Talk about a tall order. She had been at her previous school since she was 3 years old. We found The Clariden School after researching several websites. From our first visit until what is soon to be our last visit, we have been so impressed with this school. Our daughter has truly found a school that matches her academically and socially. As she is getting ready for graduation, we have such gratitude for this school. She has grown in ways that would have not been possible at her previous school. She has been given an academically challenging curriculum. This has prepared her for college studies and courses to come. She was also given a great opportunity to help start a volleyball program. Dr. Seagraves is a leader for your child. She is willing to hear their thoughts and concerns. She then addresses these appropriately. We have been impressed with her leadership and the faculty she has chosen. If you are looking for an academically challenging school where your child can be allowed to reach their full potential while being surrounded by faculty and staff that truly want your child to be their best, look no further. Clariden has made her last two years of high school special for her and for our family. Clariden has exceeded our expectations as a private school.

We have been a Clariden Family for 5 years now and have nothing but great things to say! My daughter always feels welcome and supported by staff and by peers. She has loved her time on the Volleyball team and really feel that the project based learning aspect of Clariden has given her confidence to speak in front of peers and adults at a much younger age.

Clariden is the perfect school if you''re looking for small class sizes and a supportive environment. We love that they have been working to add more extracurricular activities and growing their athletics. They''ve added programs like IB to further their value in education as well. Overall, we''ve been happy with our child''s experience.

Our family absolutely loves The Clariden School. Our daughter has received so much support from her wonderful teachers, whose guidance she will surely carry with her for life. Her classmates are the best kids we could have wished for-like a second family. Even when they disagree or get upset with each other, they always find their way back, and I''m sure these friendships will last for many years to come.The facilities are amazing, with a lab and makerspace that are every student''s dream. We also love the small class sizes, the IB curriculum, and the College Readiness class included in the schedule-it''s such a huge help during this stressful part of their journey.She''s a senior this year, and we''re already sad to leave. We will miss this school and community so much.

Our family has had a great experience with the Clariden School. It''s small school that takes the time and effort to know each family and each child to nurturer academic and social their development. What I appreciate the most in the school is small size of the classes, the focus on STEAM, the diversity the students and the efficient and close communication from the administration and teachers.

Our daughter is currently in 2nd grade at The Clariden School, and we''ve had a very positive experience. The teachers are caring, attentive, and truly invested in each student''s growth.We''ve especially appreciated the small class sizes, which allow for more individualized attention and help create a supportive learning environment. Our daughter feels comfortable, confident, and excited to go to school each day, which speaks volumes.The school also does a great job building a strong sense of community among students and families. Overall, we''re very happy with our experience and grateful to be part of such a welcoming and supportive school.

My daughters love the school environment. I appreciate the small classroom size. I feel safe dropping my daughters off at school. Every year the school gets better and my daughters look forward to returning every year.

Our son has been at Clariden for two years and its been an excellent choice for him. The unique opportunities he has taking special STEAM courses is extremely rewarding and keeps him interested in school. He joined the basketball team and his skills have flourished, allowing him an opportunity to have both the best academic classes and a rewarding sport to compete in. The smaller environment is a big plus for our family and the school continues to add new programs and class subjects each year. The campus is beautiful and offers so many resources that we could not find in other schools we considered. We are proud and thankful to be a Cougar family!

This is our son's first year in kindergarten, and we could not be happier with the experience so far. From day one, we've been impressed by the small class sizes. This allows the teachers to truly connect with each student and give them the attention they need. You can feel how intentional the focus on education is. Our son comes home excited about what he's learning, and we've already noticed such growth in his confidence and skills.

As a parent of a Pre-K student in the Cougar Prep program at The Clariden School in Southlake, I can wholeheartedly say this school is everything we hoped for-and more. From the moment our child joined the program, we were struck by the warmth, dedication, and responsiveness of the entire staff. The small class size means the teachers really know each child, tailoring their approach so our little one is supported and challenged at the same time.Our child comes home each day excited to share what they've done-whether it's exploring a science activity, working with art materials, or participating in imaginative play that feeds both curiosity and early academic skills. The curriculum is delightfully balanced: structured enough to build early reading, math, and problem-solving foundations, yet playful and engaging enough that our child genuinely looks forward to school each morning.Communication with parents is clear and frequent, and we appreciate how the school views us as partners in our child's journey. The campus setting in Southlake is lovely, and the size and community-feel of the school offers a warm, personal atmosphere that larger institutions simply don't.If your family is seeking a personalized, high-quality early education experience in Southlake-where Pre-K students are treated as individuals, encouraged to grow in confidence, and immersed in joyful learning-The Clariden School is an outstanding choice. We could not be happier with our decision.

We switched from another private school to Clariden, seeing a vast positive difference in how academics are taught and the overall school culture. There is a level of respectfulness and mindfulness in Clariden that stems from a well-coordinated curriculum, challenging academics that ignite learning, excellent teachers, and the understanding that parents are an integral part of the school community. I'm thrilled that my children attend Clariden.

My two children are entering their third year at Clariden (1st and 3rd grades), and we're so thrilled to be returning to such a wonderful school. There is such a wonderful sense of community at the school; all the lower school teachers and kids know each other. My son spent one year at public school in kindergarten and we all have PTSD from that experience! Kids and parents were just another number; no information readily available - if you wanted to know what was going on, it was up to you to figure it out! At Clariden the small class sizes and personal attention is something that both my children have thrived from. We also love the project-based learning method, which teaches kids independent thinking, shows how to incorporate multiple subjects under one topic, and introduces students to public speaking, which will set them up for success later on. I couldn't be happier with the school and would highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

The Clariden School has been great for our son! He is beginning his third year, as a second grader. Clariden has been an outstanding environment for our son to learn his fundamentals. The small class size, and teacher dedication, help each child reach their potential, at their individual pace. One of the concepts we love most is the Project Based Learning technique. Students dive into a subject matter and then present their learning in front of their peers and parents. He will be well prepared for public speaking from a young age! We highly recommend The Clariden School, where every teacher knows every child`s name!

The Clariden School is like no other school in North Texas. What drew us to it was project-based learning with an emphasis on STEAM. Our son has been here for only a year and has fallen in love with learning. The small class size keeps him engaged and allows the teacher to offer more support/add challenges when needed. The staff and teachers not only know every single student, they know what makes each one of them tick. Being intentionally small benefits the community of learners. Students are required to do a Presentation of Learning (POL) in almost all of their classes multiple times during the year...enabling students to hone their presentation skills from kindergarten through 12th grade. Project-based learning creates critical thinkers. The student body is very diverse and the school ensures that everyone feels welcomed and accepted.

The Clariden School will discover the genius in your child[ren]. I am the proud parent of two Clariden graduates and appreciate how well the School prepared them for university life and learning. We found Clariden when our eldest was in 2nd grade, and our youngest began in Pre-K. The School engages excellent faculty members that are caring and responsive. They appreciate partnering with parents to inspire life-long learning. Your child will be a member of a classroom or grade, but their educational needs will be met individually. For example, our youngest completed two grade levels in one year. The campus is stunning, and the School takes advantage of Bob Jones Park, across the street, for fun outings. The Clariden School values a global perspective, and its student body is a dynamic blend of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. Clariden taught our children how to lead, be valuable team members, and converse with excellence, integrity, compassion, and courage. Through Project Based Learning (PBL), a technique utilized at all grade levels, students develop the skills to present projects to a large audience. Project topics are exciting and engaging, and they change annually. The Clariden community is welcoming, and the parent organization is a great way to get involved and meet community members. We are a part of the Clariden family and continue volunteering and participating in School events. You will not regret contacting and scheduling a tour.

The Clariden has been home to all three of my children for the last 10 years of their schooling, and we could not be happier. I can't think of a better location for my children. The school is situated on acres and acres of a beautiful campus and most recently, we have been blessed to have an addition to our campus, with our new US STEAM building for our High School students. This new STEAM building has the top of the line spaces like a Maker Space, Labs, cutting-edge technology, electronics and tools, and next-generation classrooms. Clariden has catered and customized curriculum to each one of my children, which helps them to work at their full potential. And most importantly, as a mother, I am able to be rest assured that security and safety are a top priority each and every day, as the BEST faculty teach and watch over my children each and every day, like their own. Clariden is a family, Clariden is special, and Clariden is preparing my children for the future! Clariden is our happy place!

Clariden is a great school with small class sizes, the best faculty, and challenging academics. We love their use of the project-based learning method alongside STEAM. The campus is beautiful and inclusive and they often make global awareness a priority. Clariden grows confident, competent, and well-equipped to graduate in a fun environment. Thanks, Clariden team for all you do for the kids!
