Parents who choose Hudson College, however, are less interested in the extremes at the edges of the private education market, and more interested in the foundational elements of a strong academic program and a positive learning experience: social support, a sense of community, the flexibility to address student interests, and a consistent approach to curriculum development.
Hudson doesn’t present as a stereotypical private school, which is a net positive for parents and students alike. “When we came to Hudson for a tour I can say that everything about the school just felt right,” says Yana, a parent with daughters in Grades 9 and 12. “There was nothing pretentious about the students or staff, the science lab was impressive, and the art projects displayed on the walls were really good quality [...] My daughters were already good students when they started and Hudson has allowed them to flourish. Our kids spend a lot of time at school, sometimes more time than they spend at home, and as such, schools help to raise our kids. I can say with confidence that Hudson is doing a very good job.”
