I went there for three years of pre grade school and then up to grade five (in the 80s). I thought it was a great school and taught me a lot more practical stuff than most people are exposed to in public school. Oh yeah, no homework or report cards.
The class sizes shrink dramatically as the grades get higher. When I was there, year after year there were 3 people who would graduate from 8th grade. It may have something to do with them jumbling up all the middle school students up in one room. Anyway, good school at least for the elementary grades.

Please tell me they teach German there. Otherwise, they purposely have misspelled "criterion" and that's ridiculous. They are a SCHOOL, for pity's sake. Or mabye they're a SKOOL.

Kriterion is Greek. It explains it all on their website, because that cutesy-type of misspelling C words with a K just makes me nuts.....I went looking at their website to see myself....and I learned a little sumthin' sumthin on there.

Thank you. I admit I didn't go to their website. I did think it was some "alternate" spelling...and I HATE when schools do that. I've seen a pre-school called something like "Li'l Kuntry Skoolhouse". |

That's what I was wondering. Spelling must not be strongly emphasized. LOL Good to know it is spelled that way for a reason. |
