Incito Schools is AMAZING! My daughter is in her 8th year of attending Incito. She has continually shown growth and is flourishing all due to the love and support she receives from each and every staff member. She feels so very special, cared for, and loved because Incito has such a caring and generous community that feels like family. What makes Incito unique is that it looks at the whole learner: academically and personally, and constantly takes the time to reach each learner's needs and influence them to be the best version of themself. My daughter is truly blessed to be a part of the Incito Family!

My son went to this school until he entered high school. The education he received here was unparalleled; the teachers were phenomenal and fostered his love of math, while ensuring he excelled in other subjects that weren't his interest. I would 100% recommend this school to anyone looking for an exemplary education, in a safe, supportive, and outstanding environment.

I love Incito Schools! I have 2 learners that attend the school and am so grateful for the caring and passionate staff. The school feels like one big family and I can go to any teacher or administrator at the school and they are always available and willing to support. This school is unique as it is full of life and love. I highly recommend you tour the school to feel what we have felt for all of these years. Thank you Incito for the life and spirit you bring to my children!

My 3 learners started Incito Schools in August and we are overjoyed with their experience thus far. The environment is individualized, nurturing, and we can tell that all the teachers and leadership genuinely care about our children. This school is a blessing to our family and we are so grateful to have found such caring adults. High Trust and this school is exactly what our family has prayed for. Thank you Incito Schools for all you do to make school and enjoyable and loving environment. Recently, my kids were sick and I had to tell them to stay home from school...they begged me to let them come to school and were literally crying because they couldn't go. I was a good mom and had them stay home until they were well. :-) I love all the school events as well!

This school chooses to hire passionate educators who go above and beyond to teach learners to become the best version of themselves. My sons have thrived in this school year after year. I notice that my sons are advanced academically and emotionally in comparison to their friends who attend other schools. I love that I can drop off my children to school every day and know that they are loved, safe, and well-cared for. I am beyond grateful for Incito Schools and know that my children are forever changed by their positive approach to teaching and learning. The leadership is visible, authentic, and passionate about making decisions in the best interest of children.

My child has gone to this school since kinder and my first impression was that the staff and teachers were friendly and the environment was clean and everything I was looking for in a school for our child. Over the years I have seen a huge decline in academics and just overall efforts from teachers, this is not to say this place does not have good teachers; how ever I do feel that they do not challenge their student enough nor are teachers held accountable for holding the standards high in education. With so many on going concerns we had pulled our child out of school and relocated to a new one and found that our child was behind by 2/3 grades and that is HUGE but, due to mental health we decided to give incito another shot for the sake of our Childs happiness. Since being back our child is happy but far from where she should be academically. As for homework most children get little to none and while some parents enjoy that I however feel they should be giving children something to challenge them and at the very least be quizzed on what they learned that day to keep their minds active. It feels as though they teach the bare minimum and do very little explaining of what is required of them and when asking for support it’s like pulling teeth to get help. This school does however have some good qualities such as a welcoming environment and friendly staff but I do find they are lacking in what’s most important and that’s overall growth and preparation for the future. In order to maintain my Childs happiness and still help her grow we had to purchase higher level educational books just to try and get her ahead of what they are teaching so that when she goes on to high school she is not sitting there feeling lost. Another concern I have is pickup, a child could literally be taken at any given time due to the fact that they do not even bother to questions who you are when picking up your child from school. From personal experience I can say I deliberately had my niece pick up my child from school without giving them a heads up. Mind you my niece is not on the list of people allowed to pick up my child nor do they know who she is and yet she was able to get my child with no hassle at all. This is concerning for me and should be for all parents because we are trusting the schools with our children’s safety. With all that being said please do your homework before deciding if this school is a good fit for your child.

The leadership at this school do nothing to support teachers or students. Students at the school are allowed to do whatever they want, running the room and not taken out for support of all students. This is all done under the veil of "High Trust," which values relationships over the learning of all students in the classrooms. Students have stayed in the room who have thrown things at other kids and teachers (ie staplers, desks, books) and are allowed to hurt others.

Posted: June 14, 2020

Special Education students are rarely pulled for the time they are supposed to for their legal minutes in their IEP, and are pulled by people not trained to do that work.

0/10. This school tries to look good and sucks you in with their focus on image, but teachers are not held accountable or given any professional development, and students are not held accountable for their actions.

Posted: February 26, 2020

My child struggled with not feeling welcomed in class and I feel as though the teachers had so many other students with a garden variety of special needs/behavioral issues that he was often forgotten about.

Posted: February 26, 2020

Posted: February 26, 2020

I don't even know where to begin. The "individualized learning plan" that is touted is a complete joke. The year my child was enrolled, they just decided to skip it and not do it. We had issues with my child being physically assaulted by another student, harassed on a daily basis, and dealt with bullying and numerous other issues that the administration failed to adequately address, despite multiple requests and conversations.

Posted: February 26, 2020

Maybe they are good at supporting some learning differences, but this was not our experience. My son has anxiety, a hearing processing disorder, and several other things. He's also extremely gifted. Though I provided reports and paperwork, their "evaluation" process deemed he wasn't eligible for any supports.

Posted: February 26, 2020

Again, though they tout a strict "no bullying" policy, they use fancy language to gloss over what bullying actually is. And while I agree that bullying can be overlabeled, my son was daily exposed to other kids calling him stupid, wondering if he was transgender or bisexual based on his clothing, being physically assaulted multiple times, being told no one cared if he was there, intimidated, manipulated, and much more. Two months of dealing with the administration and watching my child's self-esteem and love of school simply fade away was enough.

Though I do give props for the principal dealing with the physical assault issues fairly quickly, the retaliation and intimidation he received from the other student and that child's friends was never handled adequately.

Posted: February 26, 2020

Awful. We did not have a good experience. While he did connect well with one or two of his teachers, my son's class had 32+ children in it, MANY with behavioral or mental health issues. Often he would come home and describe how the entire class was punished because another child acted out. While I understand the principle of allowing students to make their own choices in order to develop critical thinking skills to serve them in the real world, our experience was that there was a lack of clearly defined rules and policies AND what there was in place was not enforced equitably across the board. My son is now a happy and thriving homeschool student and probably ca never return to a traditional school again thanks to his experience at Incito and the school he was at before Incito.

Posted: February 26, 2020

Homework was only sent home if a child needed more help/support. No packets of worksheets to complete weekly.

Posted: November 7, 2019

My son loves his teachers. They give the extra attention he needs. He has made great improvement in just the few months he's been there.

Posted: November 7, 2019

My son came from a school where he was being bullied, and now he's made new friends and loves being at school.

Posted: November 7, 2019

Posted: November 7, 2019

My son has some learning curves and the teacher and staff have been so hands on working together to help him keep up. I couldn't have asked for a better staff to help co- guide my son. I say co-guide cause it takes the school and home to provide support.

Posted: November 7, 2019

Posted: November 7, 2019

So happy I moved my son he went from unhappy and not keeping up to happy and improving so quickly.

Posted: November 7, 2019

They send home what extra work is needed to help my son. I like how they taylor to each child.

I just really like the way they work at being positive when showing the learner the rite thing to do in all situations. Whether it be academic or behavioral wise to succeed.

Posted: April 15, 2019

Posted: April 15, 2019

I went with neutral on this question because I have not been aware of such bullying accurying at Incito this far.

Posted: April 15, 2019

So far I am pleased with Incito .My son is 5 and in his first year there In Kinder with Mrs Wastson and Ms Cruz. Whom have both been more than excellent teachers. They have also helped in his journey with his IEP. He no longer even needs those services. Thank You!!

Posted: April 15, 2019

He never has any.Also if he does not finish an assignment he is sent home with it.

Learning is based off where each individual learner is, not just a general form of learning. It's the same curriculum, but different levels based off learners knowledge

Posted: January 8, 2019

My son had an issue of being bullied and it was handled and dealt with promptly by the administrators, principals, and teachers.

Posted: January 8, 2019

Absolutely love this school and wouldn't want my child to attend any other school. April and Amanda have created such an incredible learning environment for all learners, not based off a class, but based off each individual child. The teachers care a great deal about their learners and go above and beyond to help them learn and prepare for the next grade level. Very positive environment from the admin, to the principals, to the front office, to the teachers, and to the support teachers.

Posted: January 8, 2019

No homework for grade school, but homework for middle school. Teachers will give work for learners to better themselves and help them learn in an area needed in both grade and middle school

Posted: January 8, 2019

Teachers show they care for students by making efforts such as communicating with parents. Teachers are very responsive.

I appreciate teachers do not implement general daily homework which tends to be busy work. They focus on students’ individual needs and areas of improvement.

Posted: January 8, 2019

My children enjoy attending school and it’s a reflection of having a good experience with Incito.

Posted: January 8, 2019

The teachers know and care for each student there. Everyone is greated by name

The extended school day allows the kids to get work done at school leaving time at home for family time.

Posted: January 8, 2019

Very positive experience here. I have a 3rd and 7th grader here and they have innovative ways for teaching and truly care about the whole student!

Posted: February 19, 2018

I love that leadership is very present daily and interactive with the students.

Posted: February 19, 2018

Both my children are on IEPs. The school has done an exceptional job of communicating and meeting my children’s needs.

Posted: February 19, 2018

Posted: February 19, 2018

The teachers are very supportive and everyone seems to be genuinely happy teaching. Our teachers communicate effectively and we have seen wonderful growth in academics with our children. Also, when concerns arise regarding academics I have been contacted by the teachers before I even had the opportunity to contact them.

Posted: February 19, 2018

I love that not only do they teach strong character but they practice what is taught and not just a few everyone.

Posted: February 19, 2018

Posted: February 19, 2018

This is our first year at Incito and our children love it! Plus, we are happy the kids are learning in a supportive environment where they are thriving. We are enjoying the rest of this year and look forward to next, as well.

My children have flourished since they have attended Incito. My oldest was struggling with math and she has exceeded leaps and bounds in math. She states to me that she wouldn't like to know the person she would have become if it wasn't for Incito Schools. That shows me that I have made the correct choice moving my kids to this amazing school. They look out for the individual learner instead of a group of kids. Amazing!!!

Posted: February 13, 2018

If you have the chance to speak with the staff in the morning or afternoon at dismissal, you will be able to see that they have the utmost respect for their kids and would do anything for them.. which just passes on to my children.

Posted: February 13, 2018

They treat everyone like family, which makes sending your kids to school that much more comforting knowing they are going to make your kids feel like they are at home and they are cared for.

Posted: February 13, 2018

You can have two learners in the same grade with two completely separate individual education plans, which means they are teaching to the individual.. not just assuming everyone is on the same page.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Never had an issue. The positive way that the teachers speak to their kids makes me want to practice this at home and in all aspects of our lives. They are a great influence on the kids.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Some of the best teaching staff we have ever had. They are supportive, caring, intelligent, and cater to the individual child.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Amazing school, effective teachers, intelligent and caring leadership, overall amazing experience and wish my kids could go to school here until they graduated high school. I am so proud to be able to take my children here.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Children have their own individual education plan, so depending on how they are doing in class and what topics they need further support with homework.. but with the longer day at school, its very rare that they receive homework because they are able to get the work done while they are in school.. which makes things for our family that much more enjoyable because we are able to spend family time together rather than spending hours fighting on homework every night.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Incito’s teachers are phenomenal! They love their learners, care for the academic and social needs of every child and take the time to plan lessons that expand learning. Every employee on that campus is excited to be at school! They are welcoming, engaging and ALWAYS smiling.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Incito’s “High Trust” culture is amazing! Traditional school districts tell kids what they are doing wrong and then gives them “gifts” for behaving. Incito’s High Trust culture inspires the entire child to be a respectful, healthy, happy and solutions oriented. My child feels respect and gives respect. Learners are encouraged to support one another positively and use kind words with one another. He’s even teaching us at home how to be aware of our interactions so that they are positive.

Posted: February 13, 2018

I love the leadership at Incito. They support their teachers, care for their employees and love all of their learners. I love seeing them welcoming learners as they arrive in the morning and being highly visible on campus throughout the day. They are educators that care about learning and the success of EVERY single child on that campus.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Incito effectively supports ALL learners. Each learner is given an ILP (individualized learning plan) which is essentially an individualized “road map” for learning. During a recent tour I witnessed small group learning, individual support, hands on activities, differentiated seating, lots of engagement and so much more!

Posted: February 13, 2018

Learners at Incito learn to respect one another and focus on solution-oriented interactions. My child regularly shares how fun school is and how much he enjoys seeing his friends. Their High Trust culture is a great example of “doing the right thing…because it’s the right thing to do.” They care…my child cares.

Posted: February 13, 2018

I love and adore Incito Schools! My experience at Incito has been far superior to any other school I’ve visited. They care about my child, love learning, they go above and beyond with communication, they hold community events that involve everyone…truly an inspiring school.

Posted: February 13, 2018

As a parent, I appreciate Incito’s practice regarding “home enjoyments” (homework). The work is differentiated to specifically support my child and is something he can do on his own while experiencing success.

Posted: February 13, 2018

My son loves the middle school team! They are extremely effective and have allowed him to be himself and learn the way he does best.

Posted: February 13, 2018

I have had great interactions with the leaders of the school, including the founders.

Posted: February 13, 2018

My son has finally had a chance to learn to his fullest potential!

Posted: February 13, 2018

When you walk into the school, you hear the language they use that is focused on respect and responsibility. The kids have accepted my son for who he is.

Posted: February 13, 2018

Incito has allowed our family to have time together as a family again. They have a longer school day, which allows my son to get his work done at school with his teacher.

Posted: February 13, 2018

I love Incito! I am proud to have my son be a Knight.

Posted: February 3, 2018

The leadership was a joke. Repeatedly reported issues to the leadership team - administration and board - nothing was done to address the continued bullying. My child was physically assaulted numerous times and NOTHING was done.

Posted: February 3, 2018

Posted: February 3, 2018

The school does not follow the ARS for bullying. When there are social and bullying issues, administration fails to respond and address the issue.

Posted: February 3, 2018

My daughter’s kindergarten teacher was amazing. Her first grade class had 31 children in it. You tell me HOW effective one teacher with 31 students can be effective.

Posted: February 3, 2018

Go watch dismissal. What a mess. The kids are rude and nasty, the older kids pushing the younger kids out of the way.

Posted: February 3, 2018

The classrooms are overfilled (over 30 kids in a kindergarten class). On the outside, it appears to be a great school. When you stretch beneath the surface the school is lacking in all manners. Do NOT be fooled by the appearance and rhetoric of the school’s administration, founders and teachers. I brought issues with my child forth and nothing wa done to correct or address. The best I was given was lip service.

Posted: February 3, 2018

There was no homework. There were state tests with little preparation and inconsistent communications regarding learning. Only when proded did they share the topics being reviewed in class.

Posted: December 6, 2017

Posted: December 6, 2017

The leadership clearly had no idea as to what the definition of bullying. As a matter of fact, when asked, the answer given was, “bullying is repeated taunting.”

Posted: December 6, 2017

Posted: December 6, 2017

Bullying was allowed to continue, therefore, how can respect, integrity, and compassion be developed.

Posted: December 6, 2017

Reported bullying behavior. Teacher confirmed behavior but bullying continued. Reported to principal and school leadership and still bullying continued.

Posted: December 6, 2017

The school is all about fundraising but I rarely saw broken playground equipment replaced.

Posted: December 6, 2017

Never had homework. Never. Had. Homework. Never
