“When I came to The Clariden School after almost three decades in public education, I had no idea what to expect from an independent school. What I found was a community. A community based on nurture, excellence, and involvement. One that utilizes resources beyond the scope of the campus to engage the learner for a greater educational impact. I also found a group of teachers dedicated to their students and their families. Teachers that genuinely love learning and are impassioned with imparting their knowledge in unique ways to students. They each have something special to bring to the process, and it makes for an enriching experience. I found amazing students. Students whose curiosity motivates investigation and study. Students with a genuine desire to explore and deepen their understanding of not just academics but also citizenship and social responsibility. I found fabulous families dedicated to supporting their children, teachers, the Clariden community, and the school itself. Families that will go the extra mile to work seamlessly in their children’s educational experiences. I found a beautiful place that I am proud to be a part of. Thank you, Clariden, for being here for all of us.”
