"Both my children are students at Fayerweather and I can't say enough about how much we love this school! While no place is perfect, Fayerweather comes pretty close in my book. Obviously I care about the education my kids are getting, but I also want a school that values the WHOLE child and Fayerweather absolutely does. My kids come home talking about the different biomes on Earth AND how one cultivates a growth mindset. I'm also really impressed by how much the school incorporates anti-bias curriculum into every grade."
"Fayerweather Street School is able to achieve the best of both child-centered yet rigorous academics and a supportive social environment that values diversity and social justice. It's a small school that offers a big variety of offerings in the arts, academics, and community engagement. This is my child's 4th year attending the school and our family couldn't be happier."
"I have two children at Fayerweather and both are thriving despite being very different children with different social and academic profiles. Hands down this is because of the teachers. I only wish I had been able to go to a school like this when I was a kid! I feel so lucky I'm able to send my kids here (with financial aid assistance). As hokey as it might sound, Fayerweather teachers truly want to know a child for who they so they can help that child grow not just as a learner, but as a human being. And while no school is 100% perfect, I've taught in school before and Fayerweather is the only place I've seen that actually owns its shortcomings and honestly addresses them, no matter how uncomfortable or challenging it might be. I honestly can't say enough things about this school!!"
