(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - What a great school! Our oldest has been there since kindergarten and is now entering 3rd grade. Our other son will be entering the 3 year old class soon.
They have sports, after-care and summer camp. The tuition is very reasonable.
When we initially considered the school, when compared to some others in the area, we thought, well, "it isn't new…" But once I saw how the facility interacts with the students, nothing else mattered. These teachers LOVE these children. It shows in everything they do. We were concerned when our son was entering school that we would have to "deprogram" bad behavior or attitudes picked up from classmates. In 3 years, we haven't had to do any of that. These are good kids from good families.
We had looked into other schools in the area, mainly "newer" campus'. We found after interacting with students and families from these schools – at off-campus recreational sports classes, we believe them to definitely be more secular than Friendship.
We love Friendship. In fact, as we drive by these other schools on our 35 minute daily trek to school, we give thanks that we have such a wonderful place for the children to be. We do not worry for their safety or about what they are learning (either from staff or students).
We love that the school goes through 12th grade, and as a products of the Wake County Public School System ourselves, we love that our children can remain at Friendship for the duration of their education.
