Rubicon Academy

"The focus on academic achievement balanced with both visual and performing arts (art, music and drama) is what drew us to the Rubicon, along with small class sizes and the low student:teacher ratio. Our family joined The Rubicon family three years ago and the individualized attention to both our children's very different personalities is what keeps us coming back each year. Our teachers are genuinely invested in every child's emotional, social and academic success and it shows in all the extra effort they invest. Encouraging afternoon play dates and encouraging friendships is just one example of this dedication that had has a large impact for our son. We also love the year end performances that the children give."

"Recommended! Rubicon finished first in state last year and second this year after participating in the Private School Scholastic Competition (PSIA) for schools its size. That’s because Rubicon provides its students individualized attention and personalized instruction so that they fulfill the full measure of their potential."

"We are thrilled to have discovered The Rubicon Academy. My child is finally being engaged and challenged academically. My child enjoys the numerous field trips that give him great exposure to the arts. I am impressed by my son’s progress in the school’s fine arts program. He pulls out his flute and starts playing tunes at every opportunity. He also loves to show off his Spanish to me. As a Spanish teacher myself, I am impressed with his knowledge and accent after only 2 years. My child also has a wonderful report with his teacher, who is a jewel. I am delighted by the progress my son has made during his time at The Academy."

"I could not be more thrilled with our experience at The Rubicon Academy. My child is thriving. Shi is lovingly cared for, appropriately challenged and is evolving as a well rounded, healthy, considerate child. I am so happy we happened upon the Rubicon. We are very grateful for all they have done for our daughter."

"We were concerned about the education our son was getting at the public school for the past 2 years. Yes, we saw some work being done, but I feel he was not being pushed or motivated enough to get the best out of him. A few years back our son was in a large private school with a great reputation, yet, I could see him under allot of stress and being "left back" by the teachers, since they are not able to put enough attention to him with such a large class room. Getting him enrolled to the Rubicon Academy was a major decision for us because it’s a small school and different than most schools we know, but after a couple of interviews with Dr. Roberts I could sense her passion for teaching, the many years of experience she has and most importantly her understanding of working with kids with special learning needs. Our son needed this special attention and patience that Dr. Roberts has provided him. It’s been just 2 months since he started at the Rubicon Academy and I'm so happy of the big changes and amazing progress I see in him. He is happy to go to school every day. Now I know that this difficult decision we faced will pay off for many years to come. I believe I will remember my boy "before Rubicon" and "after Rubicon"... I know my son has a big future!"
