“Both of my children attend Hunter Elementary school in Raleigh, NC. My daughter has been there for four years and my son for two. I am very, very pleased with our experience. The music programs are amazing. Both of my children are in orchestra. I would never have encouraged this on my own. The program gave them the initial experience and they took to it immediately. The same goes for the arts and drama programs. Academically, Hunter is a very challenging school that goes beyond teaching the basic core when needed. My children have been pulled out for extra instruction to encourage "out of the box" thinking. The only complaint is the fluctuation of principles the last few years, but this is in the process of being mended. Hunter has a strong base population and a strong magnet population - each with different mind sets and needs. This diversity makes the school unique. It is a plus for our family, but it takes the right leader to address this diverse community and unify. The past two principles have been fine, but were not the ideal leaders for such a dynamic school. Thankfully, Wake County realizes the unique value of Hunter and is committed to finding the best leader for our children. The teachers are fantastic. We have had one teacher that was not our favorite - this is to be expected at any school. (Thankfully she also left.) The difference is at Hunter is your child is not with only one teacher all day. My child only saw this teacher for one subject and home room. In most schools- she would have been with the teacher most of the day for an entire school year. The teachers are very dedicated and I am continually amazed at how much they give to the students. Just like the school needs the right type of principle - it also needs the right types of teachers. Thankfully, Hunter has those!”

“I went on this trip this past summer and let me tell you, I was not prepared for how absolutely amazing it was. I stepped on my boat and was immediately greeted by the crew I would be spending the next three weeks with in the Caribbean. The instructors on my boat were absolutely outstanding and I couldn't have asked for more. Everything is so well planned out to the tiniest detail. Land days were always fun but after a few hours, I would miss the rocking of Ormindo (our boat). Our dive instructors were amazing and I felt so safe with them, along with our skipper. I couldn't believe I learned so much by the end of the trip all thanks to them. Everyone I met, from the people on my boat, to the leaders and crews from other boats, were so amazing and I made lifelong friends. I would definitely recommend to anyone!”

“This school is very good for academics and extracurriculars, but may not be the safest environment. It is in the middle of a generally unsafe neighborhood, and there are many fights and threats almost everyday. If you are a focused and good student, this school is for you, but do not get involved in all the drama. Being a graduate (class of 2017- Go Trojans!), I have enjoyed my experience at this school, although there have been a few ugly incidents....most of the teachers are very highly trained, and teach the curriculum very well. Having graduated this school, I can tell you that it is a great environment, and that you will miss it very much when you move on.”

“We can't speak highly enough about Raleigh Nursery School. We absolutely love everything about this school - from their incredibly thoughtful, creative, and loving teachers, their professional, welcoming, and engaging staff and volunteers, to their well-crafted programs. We started our 5 year old and 2.5 year old at RNS in February. I'm thrilled with how much our 5 year old was prepared in just a few months to enter Kindergarten. His K teacher has even pulled us aside to say how quickly he adjusted to the class and curriculum. Our 2.5 year old was in the beginning stages of potty training when we started her at RNS. When I picked her up after her first day - she had stayed dry all day. By the end of the week, she was a pro and completely trained (I 100% credit her teacher for this!). Their meals are well thought out and healthy. They serve a breakfast supplement, lunch, and dinner (at 3pm, so your child isn't begging for food the second you all get home). They also run a backyard garden, which they use to supplement their meals with - a couple of times in the summer, they had the children help prepare pizzas with basil they had grown themselves! They go outside at least once a day - even if it's raining as they have a nice sized sheltered porch in the back - and on occassion take walks to one of the two nearby city parks. Often times, they are outside two times a day. In addition to how much we love the school, our children have always been excited to go. They love their teachers, their friends, and their classroom.”
