Its students are citizen leaders as each grade level participates in service to the local and global communities they study. Ravenscroft provides a solid, lifelong education for the whole family.

I have been going to Ravenscroft since kindergarten and hope to keep going until I graduate. The Fine Arts program is very strong and the athletics as well. I have just become involved with school sports this year, and I plan on continuing to be on teams. All the coaches are very fun and great at what they do. For Fine Arts, I have been involved since I could. I have been in all the choirs available to me, in Lower School and in Middle School, along with taking art. The music directors and art teachers have all won awards with their students in competitions outside of school. The academic program here, has definitely made my learning experience easier and more effective. The teachers and other staff are very pleasant, and I enjoy learning from them. In conclusion, Ravenscroft is a great fit for any student.

Our children have been at Ravenscroft since Kindergarten and Pre-K. They are now senior and freshman. We realize that our children spend the majority of their waking lives in school and with their peers and teachers/mentors/coaches and what a positive influence the Ravenscroft community has been in their lives. There is something there for every child and family to thrive. They educate the whole child with plenty of opportunities to excel in academics, sports, and/or the arts. Ravenscroft has partnered with the Center for Creative Leadership and has woven
extremely valuable leadership lessons into the community as a whole which is priceless for the future of everyone involved Lead self, lead others, change your world . We recognize how difficult it can be to raise children in today s day and age and are so thankful that our children have had Ravenscroft as their second home and family. It does take a village!!

We have had two kids enrolled at Ravenscroft for 13 years. One just graduated and is going to Wake Forest University, and one is a rising junior. We could not be happier with the quality of education and faculty, unique commitment to student leadership development, endless extracurricular opportunities, and meaningful, life-long relationships our family has built over the years there. As our kids prepare to go on to college, we look back and have ZERO regrets about our choice and financial commitment to such an incredible place - truly like a second home that has had a huge impact on who our kids are today.

This is our first year at Ravenscroft (a 4th grader) and we are very pleased. From the caliber of the teachers and staff, to the excellent communication, to the extra seminars/speakers/workshops available to parents, to the top-notch partnership with the Social Institute, everything has exceeded our high expectations at every turn! We are very pleased.

From the first phone call to the admissions office to our son's now daily experiences with the staff and teachers, Ravenscroft has been warm, inviting and full of extraordinary care for our whole family. Their focus on the whole child is noticeable at every interaction and their investment in the Lead from Here shows their commitment to development in ways beyond the grade. Our son is thriving, loves going to school and is happy being a part of a family, the Ravenscroft family. We are blessed to have found a home that caters to all types of families and accepts the diversity necessary to really make learning a full experience.

Ravenscroft is a great school! We feel extremely blessed to have our children here. The entire staff are qualified and have the children's best interest in mind. Since being at Ravenscroft, we no longer have anxiety wondering if the education and environment are right. We do however shed tears of JOY when we see how not only our children, but all the children grow. It is quite touching Education, professionalism of staff and administration, nurse and physician, security are all top notch! Only wish we had taken the step to join the Ravenscroft community sooner. You will not find a better school. Our children never complain of being bored. They are challenged and engaged in so many ways! Parent portal is a wonderful tool providing so much information about school. They do a great job keeping you informed. Also, the cafeteria is wonderful with many options for lunch. So, if you haven't toured the school, please do. You will instantly see the difference compared to other schools and you will long to have the opportunity for your children here. Again, I can't say enough about the greatness of the school.

I am very pleased with Ravenscroft! My daughter is provided a rigorous education that I believe will provide her with the tools needed to compete in a global community. I am also impressed with the "Lead from Here" program in which students are taught leadership skills from planning their educational goals to serving in the community, but the best part about Ravenscroft is that the school makes my child feel at home and accepted...and that means so much to me!

Proud to support our amazing school and blessed to have both kids here. My son toured Cary Academy and did NOT get the same vibe he got at Ravenscroft! Both my kids LOVED RAVENSCROFT and so did we.

Ravenscroft has been one of our best decisions as parents so far. It has been a safe haven for my children to grow, learn, lead, question, and flourish. Ravenscroft focuses on teaching the whole child, while maintaining a challenging curriculum. The small class sizes, paired with dedicated teachers, really allow for my children to set personal goals and work toward being the best versions of themselves.
Ravenscroft continues to evolve in order to equip our children to lead in an ever changing society. The leadership team & faculty values parent feedback, transparency, and innovativeness to progress as an entire learning community. We feel fortunate to be part of this learning community that values acceptance, inclusiveness, empathy, diversity, and growth mindedness, especially in today's society. We are grateful to part of such a progressive community of educators and would make this decision over and over again for our children and ourselves.
