Laurel has most definitely changed my life for the better. I started school there when I was in 6th grade and was struggling academically and socially. Now, I am more than prepared for college and am confident that I will be able to go in and do the work on my own and flourish with the new friends that I meet.

Even though I came to Laurel my junior year, I've loved it since the day I got here. I love the sense of community and how close everyone is. I also love that you can make a close relationship with your teachers due to the class sizings. I've made many friends since I've gotten here, making it feel like I've been here for over a year.

We would...

Laurel School has been instrumental in my daughter’s life. She is more confident, thoughtful and inquisitive as a result of the incredible staff. She is on track for an Ivy League university, which she would not be had we remained in public school. The teachers challenge her. The resources and small...

Just so most of you know, there is absolutely NO drama at Laurel School. If there is any drama, it will be very minimal. At HB I think there might be more drama because of cliques and things like that. Also, Laurel is a more homey environment and they definitely DO NOT "baby" you. They just want to...
