School Reviews
5 1/17/2023
Phoenix Modern is the perfect school for my granddaughter. The school's understanding, and innovative way of responding to each child as an individual as they guide them through the learning process is amazing. My granddaughter is very happy there and thriving in so many ways. She is learning so much more than reading, writing, and math. I applaud the guide''s consistent progress evaluation and communication with parents.
