"Good, but room for improvement"
We've been happy with Kendrick School overall, but there are a few areas where we feel the school falls short. The Widening Horizons program is great, but we've had some issues with communication from the school. That being said, our daughter is thriving and we appreciate the excellent teaching and facilities.

"Excellent preparation for life"
Both of our daughters attended Kendrick School and we couldn't be more proud of the young women they've become. The school's commitment to academic excellence, as well as its values of kindness and respect, has given them a fantastic foundation for life.
