Rowayton School

The teachers and staff are wonderful, and new leadership is enthusiastic and promising. PTA is engaged. Overall, Rowayton is a great school for early education, but more could be done for TRUE inclusivity amongst diverse families.

My daughter transferred here in the middle of 1st grade. When she was having difficulty adjusting, they called me in and had a plan on how to turn this around. Every time I've called a specialist about something they've always gotten back to me. The teachers have been involved and truly seem to care about the progress of each child. Any bullying I've come across has been addressed swiftly. I'm excited about continuing on with my second child in this school.

The problem with all public schools is they rely on town funding and how towns support their schools and this is where the problems are with this school. They avoided putting my son on a IEP plan for years as it would cost more and then they let us down badly at the end of our time here because of money, so care and consideration of each pupil is secondary. Teachers are well meaning but many lack enthusiasm!

Great, caring teachers. Only school in district to have a before school academic program (Rowayton Academy). Involved parents and PTA. Overall, very nurturing school within a wonderful community. School provides an excellent education for our kids!
