Brownell-Talbot

This review isn’t about the school per se, but in a way it is. They are gracious enough to allow the Omaha Fencing Club to use their facilities for classes and competitions. Today was my first fencing class, beginner level and it was a blast! The facilities are nice and clean, there’s children’s art everywhere which makes me smile. There is ample parking too.

Outstanding school. My 3 kids love attending BT. The staff is very competent and caring. I’m very pleased with my kid’s education experience so far. I do believe one of the main draws for our family was the diversity within the study body. BT could focus on growing their diversity among their teaching staff and administrators.

Coming from Hawaii, trying to find a school for my daughter was pretty much traumatizing. Many people have told me that schools in the Mainland are nothing like Hawaii, and I’m sure that is true, but still, I wanted to send my daughter to a private school. We looked and looked and looked. There were many schools that looked good, but their class sizes were so big with only one teacher I was concerned my daughter would get lost in the crowd and would not be able to get what she needs in education. I came across Brownell Talbot in my research and remembered that a few of my classmates from Creighton went there and they were super well rounded individuals, so, I made my husband take us to the open house :)
At the school, we found out that their class sizes in the elementary were usually around 10 – 18 students with two teachers per class. They have a well rounded curriculum where they have everything like math, art, history, but they also learn French, and for PE they learn swimming! That’s way more than I ever had in Pre-​Kindergarten and Kindergarten! Well, I finally ended up convincing my husband that we needed to send our daughter here!
All the teachers she has had so far were amazing! They are so friendly and caring and definitely know how to teach young children. My daughter always comes home telling us all of the new things she has learned at this school!
We love Brownell Talbot and as long as we live in the Omaha area, our daughter will go here.
