Editorial review summary
Parent and community reviews paint a picture of Mt Lehman as a beloved 'hidden gem' in Abbotsford. The school is deeply cherished for its small, tight-knit community feel, with only around 110 students, allowing for personalized attention. The annual 'Fall Fair' is a major highlight, drawing families together for decades and fostering a strong sense of tradition. Parents appreciate the 'rural school' vibe where staff know every student's name. Some reviews note that due to its small size and popularity, it can be a school of choice that attracts families specifically looking for its agricultural and nature-based ethos.
Common positives
