Русская Школа №1

We just finished our first year at this School with my 3.5 year old Son. We are extremely happy with the program and curriculum and so grateful for the Teachers! I can see a tremendous improvement in his Russian speaking skills. He learned and knows all the Alphabet and can read small syllables. He very much enjoys his dance and music classes Ritmika, where he gets a chance to burn his energy and Arts & Crafts classes where they do lots of different things like painting, applique, working with modeling clay. It’s a very friendly community with the most amazing kind patient Teachers and wonderful families. The schedule and commute work very well for us and we are looking forward to many more years of learning Russian language and Culture. I would highly recommend this School to everyone whether you have both Russian parents or multi-cultural families....

Russian School #1 has successfully risen to the challenge of online/virtual learning. This is the second year of remote classes and going strong. The quality of instruction is excellent and children LOVE their classes and teachers. Additionally, from textbooks and instructional materials to schedule, structure and class availability, this has been a very very positive experience - in person and online!! My 10-year-old absolutely loves it!!

We are a multi-cultural family - dad from Russia and mom from the US. Our older children (6 and 4) just finished Russian school, and we could not be happier about the experience! We went from zero Russian (yes “we” as I, the American, started attending kindergarten with our 4 yr old) to knowing simple commands, letters, numbers and certain colloquialisms. The girls attended language, reading/writing, music and art. The classes are engaging, and the teachers/administration really care. I am so happy with our progress as well as just being part of such a wonderful community. Can’t wait for our youngest to come of age to start with the school and looking forward to many more years of learning Russian to come!
