Excellent School Many things initially drew me to The Rubicon Academy. First, they have an excellent reputation for academic success, music instruction, Spanish, art appreciation and for their participation in many extracurricular activities that enhance instruction and expand real world knowledge. My child thoroughly enjoys every aspect of her school day. She is challenged in many different areas and she loves it. We really enjoy the weekly library trips, Main Street Theatre, Jones Hall performance, as well as the performance at the Rockets game. She has made significant progress in all areas. We are very proud of her and of everyone at The Rubicon Academy.

This is my son’s third year at The Rubicon Academy. He is now in the all day classroom and is doing a terrific job. At only 4 years old, he has already begun to master many of his site words, his handwriting is incredible for his age, and he is starting to master basic math skills. He is achieving what many 6 year old in the regular classroom have just started to learn. He is also doing well learning his Spanish (he enjoys counting and singing songs in Spanish) and playing his recorder. One of his paintings was entered into the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo as well. He also enjoys his Lego robotics class tremendously and that has helped with his fine motor skills and problem solving skills. I am very pleased with the progress he is making in school and with how wonderful his teachers are.

We are thrilled to have discovered The Rubicon Academy. My child is finally being engaged and challenged academically. My child enjoys the numerous field trips that give him great exposure to the arts. I am impressed by my son’s progress in the school’s fine arts program. He pulls out his flute and starts playing tunes at every opportunity. He also loves to show off his Spanish to me. As a Spanish teacher myself, I am impressed with his knowledge and accent after only 2 years. My child also has a wonderful report with his teacher, who is a jewel. I am delighted by the progress my son has made during his time at The Academy.

Allows students to progress as far as they are able. The school leaders and staff personalize and individualize the learning experience for each student which allows students to progress as far as they are able without age or grade level boundaries. The school has revisited their mission to reflect their use of a personalized curriculum to promote students to progress as far as they are able without age or grade level boundaries. E.D. Hirschs Core Knowledge Sequence is the basis of the schools innovative individualized curriculum. The school culture reflects the dedication of work in the best interest of students academic well-being with individualized instruction.

We were concerned about the education our son was getting at the public school for the past 2 years. Yes, we saw some work being done, but I feel he was not being pushed or motivated enough to get the best out of him. A few years back our son was in a large private school with a great reputation, yet, I could see him under allot of stress and being left back by the teachers, since they are not able to put enough attention to him with such a large class room. Getting him enrolled to the Rubicon Academy was a major decision for us because it’s a small school and different than most schools we know, but after a couple of interviews with Dr. Roberts I could sense her passion for teaching, the many years of experience she has and most importantly her understanding of working with kids with special learning needs. Our son needed this special attention and patience that Dr. Roberts has provided him. It’s been just 2 months since he started at the Rubicon Academy and Im so happy of the big changes and amazing progress I see in him. He is happy to go to school every day. Now I know that this difficult decision we faced will pay off for many years to come. I believe I will remember my boy before Rubicon and after Rubicon... I know my son has a big future!

I could not be more thrilled with our experience at The Rubicon Academy. My child is thriving. Shi is lovingly cared for, appropriately challenged and is evolving as a well rounded, healthy, considerate child. I am so happy we happened upon the Rubicon. We are very grateful for all they have done for our daughter.

The focus on academic achievement balanced with both visual and performing arts (art, music and drama) is what drew us to the Rubicon, along with small class sizes and the low student:teacher ratio. Our family joined The Rubicon family three years ago and the individualized attention to both our childrens very different personalities is what keeps us coming back each year. Our teachers are genuinely invested in every childs emotional, social and academic success and it shows in all the extra effort they invest. Encouraging afternoon play dates and encouraging friendships is just one example of this dedication that had has a large impact for our son. We also love the year end performances that the children give.

Recommended! Rubicon finished first in state last year and second this year after participating in the Private School Scholastic Competition (PSIA) for schools its size. That’s because Rubicon provides its students individualized attention and personalized instruction so that they fulfill the full measure of their potential.

You can tell that they all truly value each other.The community feeling of the Rubicon Academy is enhanced by the multiage classrooms and home style setting of the building and grounds. It encourages the children and faculty to treat each other as family and they do. You can tell that they all truly value each other.

Highly Recommended! Eight years ago, I was looking for a private school that would provide not only a sheltered environment, but also had a heavy focus on student success. I found both at Rubicon. My daughter was having a hard time with the public school system and coming from a conservative family, I knew that was not where I wanted her to stay. My employee suggested Rubicon and after talking with Dr. Roberts, I knew I had found the right place. I love the small class size, the one on one attention, the leadership skills that are emphasized and the strict curriculum. The school teaches Spanish, music, and art four days a week and the attention to detail, down to the educational field trips is unbeatable. All three of my children attend Rubicon and I couldnt feel happier about their future success!

The strong sense of family and team spirit permeates throughout the school and adds a unique richness to the schools multiage culture and strengthens each students sense of self-reliance. Rubicon Academy exemplifies a strong sense of family and team spirit, as evidenced by students helping and encouraging each other, as well as teachers helping students to be their personal best. The school has created a learning environment for students that nurtures a sense of caring, and belonging is evident in every facet of the work of the school. Successful schools have positive and productive working relationships that are established among students, support staff and administrators.

Here are a few things I like about this school.I like that we have field trips,plays,computer classes, and many more. My favorite teachers are,well,all of them! I cant wait to go to 4th grade!

The caring and involved attitude of the teachers at The Rubicon Academy combined with the small class size allows every child to cultivate their skills and interests.
