The Post Oak School is an incredible place. Our kids (all graduated or in the high school) have access to travel, internships, ways to connect classroom with the world around them. Students understand that they are being formed and shaped to be contributors to the world in positive ways. My college student was prepared because he knew how to be an active part of his learning and how to connect with people. Great school!
We enrolled our children as soon as they were old enough, in part because of my own positive experiences as a Post Oak student in the 1980s. One skill that I unequivocally attribute to Post Oak is an endless curiosity about the world and my place in it; a love of learning for the sake of learning.nnI have been most impressed by the faculty and their knowledge of my children as individuals. They understand how to motivate my children, and they are committed to nurturing the “whole child.”nnPost Oak parents care deeply about academics and college admissions, but they care just as much about other important issues, e.g.: Will our children learn to be good people? Will they be self-reliant? Will they be empathetic? Will they contribute to society? The answer to these questions is “yes,” in no small part because Post Oak makes these issues a priority.
My son graduated from the Post Oak High School after attending River Oaks Baptist through 8th grade. He was somewhat reserved, and his teachers commented that he rarely spoke in class. That is not an option a Post Oak. The classes are small, and the desks are in a circle. Each student presents their thoughts and defends them. Our son is now a very confident speaker and he easily communicates his well thought out views.nnThe school’s philosophy is an extension of Montessori principals, where students are encouraged to explore their own interests. The school supports intern programs in the museum and medical center area. The kids are taught individual responsibility and they plan their own class trips.nnWhile there, our son helped start an electric car conversion project where they took out the gas engine and retrofitted the car with an electric motor. He is now studying engineering at UT.nnThe school focuses on getting a student ready for life instead of taking tests. The kids don’t look at life as a series of problems, but rather as opportunities to find creative solutions.nnMy other children attended St. Johns and Episcopal High School. If Post Oak High School was an option then, I would have encouraged them to go there instead.
I mean.. looking at the pictures, and reading the reviews is this somewhere I can bring my children and they’ll be accepted? Treated like everyone else. Red flags all over.
three kids, 16, 14, 11. been at school for 10 yrs.nnthe main thing is that the kids love the school. after 10 yrs, the primary reasons i see that families leave is not the kids. parents need the reassurance of quizzes, testing, homework, grades, GPAs. this is not a judgmental thing - it's hard for any parent to just believe without the reassurance of constant testing. for us, it's easier when you see POS kids outside of school. there's definitely a difference.nnthey're not focused on just getting kids into high school or college, although the results show they all get to go where they want. they're raising humans to be adaptable, independent, emotionally intelligent, and curious adults.nni'd recommend going to an alumni night. You see adults in their 20s, 30s, even 40s all doing amazing things. really remarkable adult humans, and they all talk about how post oak shaped them to be who they are, and for us that is pretty convincing.
