“The way I sum Jordan Glen up is with the following example. There is an orange tree outside of the school. When all the oranges were ripe, the children picked and ate them. As the lower oranges disappeared, the bigger kids helped the smaller kids get the higher ones. When the higher ones disappeared, the biggest kid got a ladder and got the very highest ones down and shared them with the other kids. It operates as a family. Everyone is welcome to share and learn together. All of the teachers and children know each other. Before JG, our children were at another pre-school in town for several years (from ages 2-5). We did not have a positive experience there and our children displayed signs of anxiety, stress, and developmental delay with actual schoolwork such as math, reading, and spelling. We switched to JG halfway through Kindergarten and Pre-K and immediately noticed a difference. The children were allowed to feel comfortable in their own skin. They weren’t labeled. They weren’t put in time out for the slightest issues. They were allowed to simply exist comfortably. As a result, they were able to learn schoolwork and, more importantly, how to be good human beings. Our oldest’s math, reading, writing, and other skills immediately shot through the roof and she is now considered advanced for her age. Our youngest, who was labeled a behavior problem at the previous school became a campus wide favorite at JG. “

“We started at Jordan Glen in the 2020-21 school year because of Covid, as we were looking for a smaller, safer and more outdoors learning environment for our kids. Now that we are there, I don’t see us leaving until each of our kids age out, because they are thriving! They are being taught to think for themselves and are challenged every day to be better humans. They also have a strong sports component that suits my kids well. It is a unique school, and we feel grateful that we found it!”

“I am a student at Jordan Glen School and I love it!! I am in the fifth grade and have been attending since Pre-K. The teachers are so nice and if I could, I would rate Jordan Glen a 100/100. I definitely recommend it for all children!”

“I cannot say enough good things about this school. My child’s social and emotional well-being have improved dramatically since starting here, and he is more eager than ever to learn. Teachers strive to cultivate the whole child, not just their academic skills. A place where kids can be kids, while also learning to be kind, responsible, and self sufficient.”

“Jordan Glen’s impact on the lives of my children is immeasurable. The nurturing, creative, and highly skilled teachers made all the difference! They prepared my children for rigorous academic work in high school and beyond and nurtured a love for learning, creative endeavors, sports, and community. I simply cannot imagine our lives without Jordan Glen.”

“Jordan Glen is the best thing that has happened to my children. I have 2 kids enrolled there now. They are so happy. My kids look forward to school starting each fall. Where else can a kid get a great education and get to swim on Fridays!? JG is run by a family, and every child is considered a part of their family. Jeff, the founder of the school, loves all the students at JG, and they love him too. Class sizes are small so each child gets personal attention from their teachers. Students are allowed to learn at their own pace. If they are ahead in a subject, they don’t have to wait for their classmates to catch up, they can simply move on. Children are encouraged to be creative and share their passions. Parents are encouraged to volunteer and teach electives each semester. I personally taught an elective there and greatly enjoyed spending time with the students. There is no other place I’d send my children to school!”
