Clark School has been a perfect fit for our teen. They are in their sophomore year after starting there in seventh grade. We knew our bright and introverted teen needed a smaller school environment and an academic program that would keep him engaged and challenged. Clark School has significantly helped to improve his academic, management, and social skills. He has excelled academically, developed new friendships, and participated in clubs. The teachers are caring, always available for the kids, and produce engaging classwork. The school administration is extremely well organized and responsive and has a clear vision of the school's goals.

I read all these reviews before sending my son to Clark, and I am so happy to write my own now. My son had attended public schools from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade. He struggled educationally, socially, and emotionally. Mornings were a struggle to get him to school, and afternoons left him completely exhausted. Teachers struggled to understand him and support him so he could thrive. My husband did some research and found Clark. He thought it would be a great fit for our son. He went for a tour and knew it was the school for our son. After our son did a shadow day, he knew it was the school for him. He no longer feels angry and frustrated and is instead HAPPY to go to school. He is thriving academically and socially. This makes for a happier home for all. The other day on the way to school, he said, "Mom, I am so excited for school today." He has also said, "I am so glad I am at Clark school. It is the just right school for me." Both of these statements were completely unprompted. The entire staff sees each student for who they are, respects and values them, and TRULY cares. This creates a learning environment where students can thrive. The communication is outstanding, and we are always in the loop on everything, big or small. Our family is so grateful to have found Clark.

Thank goodness that we found Clark School! Our struggles in public school started shortly after COVID lock downs in 6th grade/ the turn of adolescent to teenager years. I saw my ADHD/ASD struggle more and more every year and even with IEP and 504s it always felt like the public schools weren't doing anything to help. Ignoring or dismissing our concerns. We saw grades slipping over time, social skills worsening and friendships becoming harder and harder to make and then when the bullying started and no teachers or students stopping it, we said enough is enough. We finally sought out real solutions and change and that's when we found Clark School. It was one month into Sophomore year in high school just before their second quarter was to begin. Since enrolling in Clark school year of high school, my child is happier, making friends, excited about photography and theater tech, getting mostly As with an occasional B, and feeling safe at school. The teachers care to make sure kids are not lost or confused with class materials and that they feel comfortable and confident enough to ask for help when needed. They make sure all students are included and engaged in the curriculum and participating together. And they have a zero bullying policy that they actually adhere to. The teachers truly show that they care about each kid individually and shape their methods of teaching to accommodate the needs of each. We love Clark School so much and will be forever grateful to them.

Clark School has created a space and opportunity for my austic child with ADHD to absolutely thrive. In his second year at Clark, the teachers can't believe how much he has changed and matured. His teachers challenge him, respect when he needs additional space or time, and encourage James to do hard things. Very STEAM focused, the opportunities in art, drama, tech, science are amazing. In addition, Clark is able to modify the curriculum when students respond more energetically to one topic or another. When my son comes home with an multi-week project they worked on, he always so excited to share what he did, what it means, and why it is important. Lastly, the teachers and staff care so much about each and every student. Hands down, Clark School is the best.

Our daughter started at Clark mid-way through her first grade year. The public school was not working and we needed to make a change - and it was Clark! We loved that our daughter knew her teachers so well, called them by their first names yet had the utmost respect for them. We loved that we had access to her teachers at any time if we had a concern. We loved that her teachers and staff would give his honest and constructive feedback when needed. Our daughter has grown in all the ways she has needed and continues to thrive. We are so grateful to all of her wonderful teachers, administration - the whole team. This is a such a special place for children to learn, grow and realize so much potential - thank you!

Choosing Clark School has been one of the best decisions we've made for our child. From day one, we felt welcomed into a caring community where teachers truly know and support each student. Our daughter comes home excited to share what she's learned, and we've watched her grow in confidence, independence, and curiosity. Clark is a place where she feels inspired, challenged, and happy every day-we couldn't ask for more.

We started at Clark during COVID-19 when we faced a lot of uncertainty with our public school system. Figured we might stay a year and go back to public school, as we'd always envisioned. Well, 4+ years later, and not only have we kept our now 3rd grader there but we enrolled our son as well who is now in 1st grade. They are both thriving!!!! We love how Clark can and does customize learning to meet the needs of every student. We love how close we feel to Clark leaders and teachers and the whole community. Small class sizes make learning so much easier and the ability to do remote school anytime is a lifesaver!! Our daughter is in competitive gymnastics and needs the flexibility to log in remotely and we found it here. We love this school and would be happy to chat with anyone considering a change!!

This is the preschool/pre-k program we have been searching for! It's academically focused, small class size, warm and consistent teachers. It feels like school and not daycare, which is what we have been desperate to find. Our child comes home daily to share what she has learned. We could not be happier.

Clark School is a school that truly cares for its students. It offers an individualized, flexible, supported, and hands-on curriculum that fosters student success. It has a beautiful campus in Rowley with offerings in theater, art, and technology.

My child loves to go to school and comes home happy and relaxed! She is learning academically and socially/emotionally. Her teachers stay in close contact with me throughout the week so I know how things are going and what is happening. They are responsive to my daughter's needs and my suggestions/ideas, willing to try different approaches to reach goals. It is a relaxed, happy environment with special activities and events/celebrations that occur every week, delighting the children. I highly recommend it!

We adore the Clark School! Our son started in 6th grade and is continuing all through high school. With individualized plans (yes, for real, not just on paper), small class sizes, and teachers who put their heart and soul into teaching (they're available for the kids to call/email after hours too!), this is the school I had always wanted to find for my son. He has changed from being a not-so-happy-about-school kid to someone who looks forward to his classes and has shed his school anxiety. All with none of the typical middle school drama! Can't recommend them highly enough! Plus, I have to add that their approach to remote learning is beyond a 5-star rating. To say that they have gone above and beyond is an understatement. The kids are engaged; the teachers are engaged, and school continued. No gaps, no drama, and only positive feedback from us.

I can truly say that Clark school has been then best choice for my daughter. She suffered with anxieties with larger class sizes at her preschool and was really struggling. At Clark, the class sizes are much smaller and I saw her anxieties melt away. The attention from the teachers helped catch things that we could address right away and were able to help her grow past very quickly. She grew so much personally and in her education. The community of the school is amazing, everyone is so welcoming and knows you personally. It truly feels like a family! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for schooling.

My son joined Clark school a year ago, and it was the best academic year he ever had. The school not only helped him catch up on his education level but also helped his self confidence and social skills. The team at Clark helps him where he needs help and challenges him where he needs to be challenged. The transition to home schooling during COVID-19 was smooth and of high quality.

Our daughter has thrived at Clark. At the public high school she felt like just a number; at Clark she feels like part of a family. The teachers and staff have gone above and beyond to support, encourage, and help when needed. The environment is warm and friendly. Our only regret is that we did not find Clark sooner!

Clark School is everything we hoped and more. Moving our then 4th grade son and 2nd grade daughter from public school was a huge decision but now, 3 years on, we are amazed at the transformation. My son's anxiety no longer gets in the way of him enjoying school and he is thriving academically, socially and personally. My daughter has been accelerated academically and has just completed the 6th grade curriculum as a 5th grader. Clark is able to individualize their environment and tuition to meet the unique needs and capabilities of every child and the results are astonishing happy kids who are resilient, feel good about themselves and know what it feels like to succeed. Thank you for all you do Clark Faculty and Admin - we are so grateful for you!

I cannot say enough good things about this school. Both of my children have benefited in very different ways from how amazing it is. I first found Clark when looking for a high school for my son, who had a learning disability. The focus on executive functioning skills, the individualized curriculum (which they really do!), the no-bullying atmosphere, and the absolute commitment to helping him succeed, with no MCAS and no stressful IEP meetings, was a literal life changer for him and the rest of the family. My daughter will be a senior next year, having started at Clark in 6th grade. She has no learning issues, but needs an environment that is flexible enough to allow her to pursue interests such as figure skating (which counts as gym)! She can wander into the amazing art space even if she has no formal class there and get input into projects she's working on. The small class sizes (not above 15), calling the teachers by first names, the school dog Riley, I could go on and on about the things we love. If you are looking for an alternative to public school, I urge you to check this school out. (They also seamlessly switched to virtual teaching during the COVID crisis without hesitation, since their Snow Days have always been "at home learning days.")

Our child has flourished at Clark after having been subject to the social stresses of a public school. Clark has a nurturing environment that makes the individual want to learn. Very balanced curriculum between the arts and STEM, with ample opportunity to explore and develop. Thanks Clark!

Clark School is the way that school ought to be! From the teachers to the administrators everyone knows and cares about every single students' individual needs and goals. It is a safe and welcoming environment where everyone feels like family. A maximum class size of 15 students ensures that no child will slip through cracks and will receive the attention and help that they need. Students will be challenged to their full potential and will be given the opportunity to express themselves artistically, socially, emotionally and academically. Overall, Clark will help prepare your child to be the best version of themselves that they can be and have the tools to be successful post Clark.

A school that cares. A no nonsense school that Teaches the children skills they need in real life. Teamwork acceptance of each others differences. They hand pick their students on how they can help. Your child is in a safe nurturing Environment. Perfect for children in Autism spectrum and children bullied in public schools. They are no nonsense, any issue will be addressed and any bullying. The offenders Will be kicked out of school. Not swept under the rug.
