Update by user Apr 24, 2017 Positive review posted Original review posted by user Apr 24, 2017 I have two children attending Ambleside School of San Angelo. My older child has been there 3 years, beginning with kindergarten and now in second grade. My younger child is in her 2nd year. At Ambleside, my kids are developing a love of learning while receiving a rich and rigorous curriculum. The curriculum has produced National Merit Scholars, a Harvard student, SAT/ACT scores in the top 10% nationwide, and above all else happy well-rounded kids! A big focus in early grades is the development of lifelong healthy habits that support learning and success later in life. The atmosphere supports real growth rather than focusing on teaching to the test. The teachers and school center on Christ and treat all students with love and respect. Among private schools, Ambleside is priced well among competitors while providing superior teacher-student ratios. Ambleside is the only private school in San Angelo using the Charlotte Mason philosophy. This school focuses on her educational principles which are best summarized as, "Children are born Persons and Education is an Atmosphere, a Discipline, and a Life." Students are well nurtured in mind, body and spirit. This translates to lots of enrichment classes in art, violin, voice, Spanish as well as nature studies outside and plenty of outdoor play. Ambleside educates the whole person and instructs them in a loving Christian atmosphere. School tours are available upon request at any time. Please call to visit and see for yourself. (325) 659-1654
