| 3/28/2012 | parent | SMALL CLASSES-BIG IDEAS is exactly what Satori is all about. If you haven't seen Satori lately, NOW IS THE TIME. The director is superb and the children are so kind and supportive of one another! The atmosphere, where creativity and thinking outside of the box is welcomed, makes the learning fun. I also love the fact that, in addition to PE twice a week, they still have free play recess daily. I must say congratulations to Satori's students for winning the state and national primary class of the year from the National Energy Education Developmnet (NEED) last year. This year all of the 4th graders scored high enough on their SAT test to quailify for the DUKE University Talent Search Program. Way to go SATORI FLYERS!!!

| 2/7/2012 | parent | Small Classes-Big Ideas is Satori's motto. With an enrollment of 35 kids total ages K-6th grade there is plenty of one on one student/teacher interaction. Students learn by studying "real world" integrated curriculum and hands on learning. Emphasis is on Math, Science, Language Arts, Music, Spanish, and Art. Small group projects in a multi age setting allows the children to communicate, interact, and grow in a safe family like environment. Free piano lessons are offered in the afterschool setting and also Drama classes with a small fee. The school director is a life long educator with a HUGE love for children. Teachers pay special attention to each child's specific primary learning style. The school is considered a parent co-op so the parents are always welcome in the school and share in the responsibilities of fund raising, field trips, etc. Satori just celebrated 30 yrs of teaching on Galveston Island and has turned out many students who have gone on to be valedictorians, salutorians, entrepeneurs, business leaders, fine artists, and most of all fine citizens. I have been familiar with Satori for the past 18 years, known students, teachers, and now my son attends. |
| 2/12/2009 | student | This is probably the best school in Galveston. They are involved with their community. They want the kids to be successful and the teachers are the best. They try to make learning as fun as possible for the kids. |
