My daughter has been going to this school since kindergarten. She suffers from social anxiety, generalised anxiety, and her doctor thinks she may have Bipolar disorder. What did the teachers do to help her? Force her to face her fears and present things to her class. This lead to many mental breakdowns and even more stress for her, she even stopped talking at home because of it. They recently got a new principal and she is so unkind to the students and puts on a smile to show that she cares, but she really doesn’t. The old principal was very nice and caring, and provided fun programs for the students to do, like help refurbish the courtyard and take care of the tortoises. I’m very disappointed on how much they care now, they don’t.

The principal and staff are amazing. They make learning magical at this school.

We had a solid experience in the classrooms, the teachers are committed and truly love their students. Outside of the classroom, which is over an hour a day, good luck, your kids are going to need it. The bully behavior is encouraged and reinforced-parents are kept out of the loop if your child is bullied, and your child will be punished without your knowledge if they are involved. There isn’t consistent homework policy throughout the school, so if you have multiple children here you may or may not have homework. We found our kids didn’t have a lot of time to eat, and were always hungry.

I have two kids at Zaharis (and another one going in a few years) and I've had nothing but amazing experiences. The teachers are all fantastic, the administration is lovely, the campus is awesome. They use an inquiry based approach to learning which the kids really respond to and I'm always so impressed with the things they are learning.
