What Primer Families
Love Most.
I like how there’s time when you finish with something you can make time in your own schedule to pace your goals. In other schools they just pile on the work and sometimes it gets to be too much. Less homework is just so good. I get to play pickleball after school and enjoy some time outside getting exercise. Ms. Taylor is kind, she’s not pushy, she really cares about us. She treats us like we’re one of her own. I like that there’s a snack break. Sometimes you just really need that extra snack rather than focusing more on your stomach feeling empty for hours. I love that the pursuits switch. Normally you just cycle through the same 3 things like music and art but here you have so many options to do and it really helps you with preparing for your future.

Our experience as a family with Primer has been absolutely stress free. MarQuis enjoys school and finds it nice that everyone knows him so well. His teacher takes the time to personalize and that is important to him.”
