(My own children) have always been cared for...they have been pushed and challenged. They got to try anything they wanted without being discouraged - band, plays, sports, etc. And, I had the opportunity to go to school with them their entire lives! Park is my home away from home. - Kyle Polaske, Art Teacher Parent of Ryan '23 and Griffin '27 I feel trusted and supported - and am given the time and resources to do my very best for the children. I am very fortunate to work with such caring people and find it a pleasure to come to work each day. - Sharon Schultz, Lower School Learning Specialist Parent of Peter '14 Park students are literally the best. I've traveled with Park students on local field trips and for immersion, with both middle schoolers and upper schoolers, and repeatedly the folks we've interacted with comment on how polite and engaged our students are. They are kind people who genuinely care about their classmates, who are happy to see others succeed, and who help those around them who may be struggling. They are not perfect, as no humans are, but they are people who take accountability when they make a mistake and are truly interested in repairing any harm they may have caused. It is a pleasure to be surrounded like young people like ours every day. - Amy DiChristina, Head of Middle School " " We enjoy seeing our children learn through experience in a way that motivates them to ask questions and solve problems. To us, Park means exploration, community, and a foundation for lifelong learning. - Alyson & Kevin Coppola '03 Parents of Kevin '32, Dominic '33, and Gabriel '36 " " " " " " Park students are the kindest and most considerate students that any school could ask for. - Chris Ciechoski, Director of Innovation & Technology Parent of Christopher '34 and Myles '37 " " 38
