Since starting in PreK in 2019, our son has absolutely loved Galloway. The pandemic has brought on some difficulties for all of us, and the entire community has treated our family with empathy, patience, and a genuine desire to inspire a love of learning. From a focus on social emotional learning to STEAM integration in classes, we appreciate Galloway's approach to educating the whole child, not just focusing on academics.

We couldn't have made a better choice for our twins, each of whom have unique educational needs. The school is focused on supporting the individuality of each student and challenging them to find their own definition of excellence and achievement. They each got in to their early decision selections and are thriving.

My review is for the high school. I am extremely disappointed by Galloway. It's a smoke and mirrors exerience with little substance and many weak and unqualified teachers who spend most of the class time talking about their own political views and trying to brainwash kids. I had a positive experienc...
