"Our family is so grateful for the faculty at The Booker School. The teachers know our child so well, and with this understanding, they do so much to nurture his continuous growth as both a learner and a community member. The teachers encourage a love of learning that extends well beyond the classroom, and our child looks forward to going to school every day." 

"The faculty at TBS has been phenomenal. Coming from a homeschool/unschooling background, we (child and parents) were unsure how the transition to a more formal, away-from-home school would work.  But the teachers at TBS have shown the utmost care and consideration for our kid and her particular learning needs. We have a deep appreciation for the pedagogical approaches of the teachers at Booker. Their ability to introduce a broad variety of types of learning for all students is remarkable. All students are required to participate in activities. They may not be naturally inclined to do, but in the end you see them all learning from it."
