  We were one of the pioneer families to join Geffen Academy in 2017-18. We were excited about the possibilities that Geffen Academy offered. We were looking for a diverse school setting that offered an academically rigorous program and provided every student what they needed to be successful. Geffen Academy has been a great fit for our family. Geffen Academy is staffed with a group of smart, caring Educators who are committed to making sure every student has a positive schooling experience. We are delighted to be part of the Geffen Academy family.

  We are so grateful that we are part of this amazing and wonderful school. My son is enriched and challenged every day by his Educators and the work that he does. This school works so well for those kids who are interested in digging deep about their passions and learnings. One of the things we love most is that competition is not really part of the Geffen Academy infrastructure. Every day we feel so blessed that we are part of the Geffen Academy community.

  We feel so fortunate to have both of our children as students at Geffen Academy. The commitment to providing opportunities and programs that allow middle and high schoolers to learn, mature, and excel in a compassionate environment has been more ideal than we ever could have imagined. Most of all, we appreciate that the Geffen Academy head of school and administration make decisions with intent and purpose and always prioritize the academic and personal growth of the students.
