The Miquon School

Address: 2025 Harts Ln, Conshohocken, PA 19428, USA

“As a graduate of the class of 2017(2010 - 2017), I'll give my two cents here. Miquon was the foundation of the many things I am doing now. It started lasting friendships, was the basic outdoor training grounds for parkour, a place for a sprint in the woods, and helped me get into technology, pc gaming, politics, and more. But there was a part of it that also put me where I am. I missed out on cursive writing, could never really pull dash vaults without getting into trouble, and created a gap in my knowledge of things like math, due to spending a month on one subject like Least Common Denominators and more, rather than spending a week on each section and getting it into our heads in my new school. I never got into a school of my choice when taking the test that schools would look at to determine if I can become a potential student to potential graduate of the schools, leading me to run a second round of school visits. Time was, in my eyes currently, not used to the fullest, spending 4 - 5 months on one topic, like stocks/money or sacred places. I was very clearly showing that I would work better with different teachers near the end, but that never came to reality. I was having a very hard time to get an answer to my own question: "When I grow up, and if I have children, should I send my children to either Miquon or Frankford Friends?" I came to the conclusion that may cost the overall future of my future children, I'd send them to Miquon. Though test taking skills may not be the sharpest, the ability to work quick enough, and the bare minimum of supplies are provided to the children of Miquon, I'd recommend parents to send their children to Miquon. The mix of urban concrete and rural green and the amount of time spent outside, the ability to adapt quickly to something different in surrounding and size, and the projects started by/for these students would be a monumental push through the future of these students. I am now a student at Franford Friends School, a person learning to fly without wings, someone who could go to mystical places without needing to dream by behind a keyboard and mouse under the alias as "Specter", a choirboy with the Keystone State Boychoir who will be travelling around the world, a future DJ, a science, technology, music, and movie enthusiast, and a singer - musician, and all of that started at Miquon. This is my review of my seven years, at Miquon.”

AIM Academy

Address: 1200 River Rd, Conshohocken, PA 19428, USA

“Overall AIM has done wonders for my son. He loves learning in the environment that AIM has created. For that I will be eternally grateful and recommending AIM to any child. From a parent engagement perspective I have some reservations. For several years I have asked permission to observe my son in his classes as well as observe some teachers in the upper grades. This would help me understand my son's current and future experiences and truly enable me to be a part of the team. Each year I am turned down. Some staff have supported my requests, but the leaders of the school refuse. This makes me wonder if they know that some of their teachers are "too green." In contrast, my other son who attends McCall, an inner city public school, the principal welcomes parent observation. The principal at McCall knows that while the school may lack the small classroom size or amenities of a place like AIM, that their teachers are the highlight and have an unbelievable skill level. Despite my reservations (dislike of secrecy) my son now LIKES school. He has developed good study skills and is learning. At the end of the day, what matters most is that my son is an engaged happy learner and for that I will be eternally grateful to the staff at AIM.”
