| 10/10/2012 | parent | My children received an excellent education at Calhoun. The MS and HS are intellectually inspiring schools. The division heads are caring, dedicated individuals. The teachers are passionate about their subjects and communicate their passion to the students. It was challenging academically, overall an amazing experience for my children. |
| 6/1/2011 | parent | I took my child out after 6 years. They are too permissive, no structure, don't teach basic reading skills. The failure to get involved allows bullying to exist, the administration will not get involved so bad behavior flourishes. |
| 4/12/2011 | parent | Calhoun has received criticism for many substantiated reasons. While their "progressive" approach to education is appealing to some others, like me, found it to be a waste of money. Yes, children should be "free thinkers", creative, etc. but they NEED structure and excellent academics too which Calhoun can't provide. Calhoun seems to focus on amenities-creative a country-club atmosphere that is not conducive to learning, establishing boundaries or preparing for college. Calhoun boasts that they don't put emphasis on testing-they should -then they will see that their kids aren't learning. We will not return-we rather spend our money on a REAL education not a country club for children. |
| 4/29/2006 | parent | A wonderful, wonderful education. The best, really. Your kids will grow into caring, thinking, confident, and critical thinkers, who will learn how to express themselves clearly and eloquently. Yes, the academics are there, but this school is more than that--and it shows with the quality of kids that go there. |
