School Reviews
5 10/7/2020
We are thrilled with Kimberly Lane. We started Kindergarten mid-year and just before quarantine, but my son was able to bond quickly with his teacher. The school itself is beautiful, well-managed, and led by an extraordinarily caring principal (Dr. W). Teachers are accessible, caring and capable. There is a lot of school spirit and kids seem to be pretty kind overall. We have been impressed by the diversity at the school (lots of awesome immigrant families from all over the world and some opportunities to share cultures and broaden kids'' horizons). My son genuinely loves school, even during these crazy times. We even adore our bus driver! Yay for Kimberly Lane!
