Open Quote We recently moved to Deephaven from Chicago where our children attended a private school. We have been amazed at the level of math and reading the kids are doing here in Deephaven. Even for the kids who aren't "accelerated", it's amazing to see the things that they are challenged to do. The teachers are terrific and are instructing the kids to learn in new and inventive ways. I would HIGHLY recommend this school to even the most critical parent. Close Quote
