The kindness and respect the teachers have for their students, the learning method and tools, and the dedication of everyone involved are just a few examples of what so strongly draws us to this school. Because of NRGLC we spend more time in WV then we probably would otherwise. |
My daughter has attended this school since the age of three, and I couldn't imagine a better academic or social environment. Her standardized test scores reflect the academics, and her respectful behavior and excitement about school reflect the school's loving, community-oriented approach. I'm thrilled that such an opportunity exists in such a small town...This school is truly a gem. |
“Enrolling our child at the NRGLC has proven to be a great decision for our family...Having little knowledge and experience with the Montessori approach to teaching going into it we have certainly been impressed so far. |
