The school is genuinely just so bad like I do not recommend it whatsoever number one the teachers like they are nice but theyre really unprofessional number two. Its such a bad learning curriculum like you cant really learn anything. Thats why the scores are so low like its genuinely so bad and thats why they make students not let them go to recess because the third graders fifth fourth graders and fifth graders could not go to recess because they had to stay in studying for eight hours straight like come on now the students are generally so rude like at that time I was got bullied when I was doing anything like theyre just so rude to you for no reason whatsoever, theyre rude to disabled people like theres so much bullying. Its like the teachers dont even care. The administration team only cares about the teachers they could care less about the students and the rules are just so unfair. I genuinely just hate the school like theres not a a school worse than bridge prep genuinely just the worst. I do not recommend your child coming here. Please dont take them here.

This part year, the school went through an administration change. At first, I was hesitant because no one likes change, but this has been the best school year my twin girls have experienced. There was so much communication from teachers, you always know what is going on. The admin team also has an open door policy and if you have any concerns, they will make time to meet with you. My girls love their school and cannot wait for 2nd grade.

As a new middle school parent, I stopped by for a tour and found out that they start teaching students to be biliterate as early as kinder. They also offer options for middle schoolers to obtain college and high school credit. The staff was very friendly and answered every single one of my questions. I'm definitely bringing my kids here!

Personally me this school is very bad and I do not recommend it at all because the curriculum is made very poorly. I barely could learn anything. The teachers are very nice, but some are like really unprofessional. I do not feel safe at the school at all. Theres always students that are very rude and bully from my personal experience well it seems to me that they care about the teachers more than the students and also the school has a really really bad overall score like in 2019 this school was very below average and was a D so if you want to put your child here please do not

If this is what they call a school and a charter school they definitely need to revise it. Very unprofessional, unqualified staff. They do not encourage a good learning environment and they definitely not allow the students to excel and thrive . Culture based on threats and punishment . This is not how we planned to educate our children or be in an unsafe environment to be bullied and harassed by teachers and admin with authority. As a parent I felt that the well being and safety of my children was in jeopardy. I wont recommend any parents to enroll their kids . All the good staff had already left and they are hiring anyone to teach the kids with no education or skills to handle the needs of our children

I absolutely will not have my daughter attend this school next year. This year there is a new principal that is very much rude. Majority of the staff that literally cares about the students left thats a red flag there. All new teachers that is not known. It took me literally 3 months just to having a parent teacher conference and the teacher was very unprepared and very passive and condescending. We had the meeting in the front office unprofessional. The principal just stood there. My daughter complains about the teachers on a regular basis. They have not as of yet had a parent night to introduce the staff nor the academic status of how they are going about the year for the students. Picking up your kids in the afternoon the line is ridiculous and unorganized. The school. Its just in disarray. I dont like how everything is handled. Like I said its one of the schools where I wish the old Principle was still there. At least he has some type of structure to the school and how things are ran I would never recommend anyone to come to the school on Atlantic Boulevard ever.

They suspended my son for the last week of school over a jacket! They claim my son got smart with the principal over the jacket, but it was no uniform day. He shouldnt be suspended because its was no uniform day on Wednesday though Friday! Please, dont send your kids to this school they have there picks of students they like the most!

My son is having services taking away from him. This is his first year in middle school. When he had services he was doing good at he elementary school. These ese teachers don't care. And think they know more than doctors.

Outstanding. The schools first year open was 2017. That so happened to be my daughters first year of school as well. She was starting Kindergarten. I first tried to get her into a bigger Charter school here but didn't make the deadline. I happened to pass this school and decided to give it a chance and i am so glad that I did. I have nothing but good things to say. This will be my oldest third year in this school as she is going to 2nd grade and I now have a kindergarten starting this year as well. I feel nothing but ease that my kids attend this school.

For a first year school, this school is awesome! The principal and teachers go out of their way to know the students. They have been faced with some large hurdles as a new school. Congrats and I know as the school grows, so will its reputation as a school who cares. Not many around that have that personal touch. Thank you Mrs. Kannada and staff.

The principal assured me she would contact me and place a note in the sign out book if my son's father or family members tried to take him out of school early. 3/2/18 my son was picked up from school early for the 5th time and no one contacted me. Mrs. Kannada basically lied to me. My son's education is the most important issue here. Please tell me what is wrong with this picture.

I love this school. My kids are doing so much better. The lady in the front office is so friendly and I am glad the young one that worked in the front office earlier in the year is not there anymore. She was not a good representation of the school. The principal is kind and listens to my ideas. I can't wait for next year to start.

Mrs. Kannada is a wonderful principal. She has gone above and beyond and really cares for each student. The communication I receive at this school beats any public school in the area and this is a safe environment compared to the surrounding schools.

Disorganized leadership, inadequate staff, student safety concerns on a daily basis, many issues.
