Last year was my son's first year at this school and we loved it. The best part is the parent involvement. While I was a bit disappointed in the actual communication from the school itself, the parents, PTO, and mom group was very helpful and included us immediately. My son started in 4th grade last year and loved it.

I highly reccomend it to anyone capable of testing in. It's more like a family than a school. I still see teachers occasionally (3 years later) and they know me by name and ask about my kids. I cannot give the institution enough accolades.

My 2 daughters attended Airline Park and have gone on to Patrick Taylor Science and Technology Academy. They have excelled at both and have more homework than I ever remember having in high school. What's better, they look forward to school and are very involved.

Mrs. Le Beouf and her posse are always on point. And Mr. Matranga made the experience for us and our children. We love this school.

My girls are my proof of this. Both of them are respectful and conduct themselves with integrity and compassion on a daily basis.

Again, Ms. Le Beouf runs APAAS flawlessly. She actually makes it look easy.

Although gifted my oldest had some learning difficulties at first. But it didnt take long for APAAS to help her through it.

I can think of one example of a student being expelled for his first offense in a severe bullying incident. They have zero tolerance.

Excellent school that we are very fortunate to be able to send our daughter to. Everything seems amazing so far. I have no concerns at this time.

Hi , I am a fourth grade student at Airline Park Academy. It is a school of excellence. The staff here is very kind and is ready to teach you. There gifted programs are great such as: art talent, music talent, drama talent, and gifted talent. There is a field near the blacktop at P.E. where students get a good amount of exercise. At Airline Park Academy there is something called EAGLE PRIDE that everyone must follow, the following explains the meaning: We are the EAGLES so we have to have and be............ P is for PREPARED R is for RESPECT I is for INTEGRETTY D is for DETERMINATION E is for EXCELENCE Another thing is a group of parents who set up things like: skate night, fall fest, book fair, and movie nights.
