"A wonderful school that exceeded our expectations"

We moved to a different area, but our daughter continued to thrive in this school. The dedicated staff, the OPAL program, and the emphasis on community made it feel like a second home. We're so grateful we were part of the Cavendish family for as long as we were.

"A great all-around school with some minor issues"

Overall, we're very pleased with Cavendish. The teachers are warm and caring, and the school's emphasis on outdoor learning is fantastic. However, we've had some issues with communication from the school office. Still, we feel our daughter is getting a great education.
