What Parents Are Saying About Shreiner:
"We have been in the Shreiner family for 6 years. What we like most about Shreiner is the personal attention you exert towards every student that makes us, the parents, feel it is one big family which could be missing in most schools. Both of our girls consider Shreiner as their second home. That safe and secure feeling is priceless to us. Your personalized teaching and the exceptional curriculum is what drives our girls to succeed and prepares them for a bright future."-- Allan Khalife, Smyrna, GA
"When our daughter first arrived at Shreiner, she was extremely timid and reserved. After a couple of weeks we saw a major change in her attitude and desire to learn. The Shreiner staff has an amazing ability to bring out the best in their students! They are true testament that through love and encouragement, possibilities are endless for children. Thank you for all that you have done!"
-- The Riggins Family
"Shreiner has a family atmosphere. It’s challenging without being too rigid. I like the diversity—it’s truly an international academy."
-- Heather Izurieta
"This is a school with great educational values delivered by genuine, dedicated and loving staff. Teachers are great and have been with the school for a long time. The curriculum structure and school events are meaningful."
-- Rupa Oak
"Shreiner has high academic standards while maintaining a fun, friendly, loving, and relaxed atmosphere. Other private schools in the area don't have that kind of learning environment. The staff is very accessible and easy to work with. Shreiner has a great deal of diversity in its student population for a school of its size."
-- Christopher Appel
"Shreiner Academy’s greatest strength is the ability for students to learn in a smaller classroom environment. The teachers are able to give individual attention to the students and the students are able to have a voice … they can open up and are not left silent. The teachers can also monitor student progress better within the classroom."
-- Maurisha Bowers
"Shreiner is affordable and isn’t pretentious; its student body is diverse and the staff and students appear happy. The academics are challenging, and the staff knows my child well."
-- MarKay Appel
"The curriculum is the greatest strength of this school. It is a very strong program that allows the students to excel beyond average level of achievement for their grade. The field trips are also excellent. Shreiner provides such varied field trips from museums and aquariums to fun-filled activities such as laser tag and amusement parks. Another great strength of Shreiner is its outstanding responsiveness to parents’ concerns. This is a big reason why my son has been a student at Shreiner since he was 3 years old!"
-- Tammy Elliot
"My child has learned so much with great teachers and curriculum. School is open around Holidays for those of us that have to work (Thanks!). Nice kids, nice cultural balance."
-- Zoe O'Brien

"I have been a teacher at Shreiner Academy for the past three years and I am so glad to be part of the school. I feel privileged to work with so many other wonderful teachers who are willing to help one another and are not only good coworkers, but also good friends. In my time at Shreiner, I have worked with preschool, kindergarten, and the upper grades. I have to say I really cannot pick a favorite. All of the students are exceptional. They make my job fun and allow me to look forward to coming to work, which is more than a lot of people can say!" -- Kari Hardin, 3rd Grade Teacher "Shreiner Academy’s learning environment is very unique when compared to most schools. As an educator, it is incredible to have such flexibility within my classroom! The small class size truly allows me to teach to each student and his/her needs."
-- Rachel Turner, 2nd Grade Teacher, Cedar Class "I am in a unique position at Shreiner Academy because I am a 3K teacher and I have a daughter in 4th grade. My perspective comes from information I receive from staff, parents, children, and upper management. I still choose to send my daughter here. My husband and I have been very happy with the progress our daughter has made with the accelerated curriculum at Shreiner. Last semester she made straight A's for the first time. As soon as you walk on campus you know that Shreiner Academy is different. The atmosphere is one of family, nurture, nature, and a friendly learning environment. The small teacher to student ratio promotes advanced learning and an intimate setting to form lasting friendships and a close bond between teacher and students. As a 3K teacher, I form long-lasting and close bonds with my children year after year. One of my favorite things to do is visit my former students in their current classrooms to see how they are doing and get great hugs."
