“I’d like to share a hidden gem in the Exton area where my son is having a very positive 9th grade experience. After exploring several private schools in Chester and Delaware Counties, we chose Church Farm School in Exton [for the] the structure of the school day, [optional] boarding school environment and benefits, student support system, lower cost, and diverse community.
The results week-to-week have been amazing! He is much more confident, takes more initiative, is more responsible, enjoys what he is studying each day, and wants to talk about it — and he is actively engaged in his own college and career planning. The support system from staff, faculty, and fellow students has also been incredible. [If] you are looking for a more suitable education for your son, make sure CFS is on your list!” – Bobbijo P.
