“I wish there had been a Garden Road School for my own kids. The whole place is a tribute to the energy, inspiration, and intelligence of its founders and staff. If we ever get the educational changes as a nation that we so desperately need, it will come from quiet little “can do” places like the Garden Road, not from Harvard or Washington. I heartily endorse this school.”

Former New York State Teacher of the Year, Author of Dumbing us Down
