"A Safe Haven for Our Child"

We cannot speak highly enough of The Stables Independent School. The staff are caring and knowledgeable, and the small class sizes have been a game-changer for our child. The Thrive program has also been incredibly beneficial in supporting our child's emotional well-being. We feel so grateful to have found this school.

"A Good Foundation, but Room for Improvement"

We had a good experience with The Stables Independent School, but there were some areas that didn't quite meet our expectations. The staff were generally supportive, and the small class sizes were beneficial for our child. However, we felt that the school could offer more extracurricular activities and that the communication with parents could be improved.
