What They're Saying About Roeper
Playfulness, exploration, and personal discovery are essential elements at all levels of our school, and as a result, our students apply information in thoughtful and innovative ways. With this holistic perspective, Roeper succeeds in matriculating students of uncommon excellence to the schools and opportunities of their choice.
Susannah Nichols
Middle & Upper School Director
We are so grateful we found our way to Roeper. Our daughter has had a phenomenal preschool experience. The low student to teacher ratio and Roeper’s ability to use their large campus for exploration and discovery has laid the foundation for our daughter to be a hands-on, investigative learner. She is excited to go to school every day and has created strong social connections with her classmates as well as learned how to be independent.

[In my class] we had state champions, professional musicians, renowned artists—the list goes on. But what really stands out to me is how my class has taken their passions and used them to serve others and the greater community. That is the mark of true Roeperians.

When you find the place where you know your child will be nurtured and allowed to flourish and become who they are meant to be, it is a joy (and a relief).
