I can not speak highly enough about this school. It has truly been a blessing to our family. The teachers are incredible and the environment is nurturing and creative. There is zero bullying and the education is superior to any public or private school my three children have attended.

This is an amazing educational environment that is incredibly nurturing and individualized. The teachers and administration truly care about each child individually and work on their strengths and weaknesses. There is absolutely no bullying and I can not think of a more perfect school.

The Einstein Academy has served as a safe, educational environment for both of my children for the past three years. My High School Sophomore and 5th grader are excelling and achieving the high standards set by the teachers. The individualized attention allows each student to thrive in their strengths and feel supported as they work through areas of weakness. The Einstein Academy is a special place and I am thankful we found the school.
