The principal, one of the vice principals and a handful of teachers have made it impossible to give this school a good rating. The irresponsibility have been mind blowing and have caused a terrible experience.

Apollo is a great school with a solid foundation. PTA and local neighborhood parental involvement make it an excellent choice. The band program is excellent and has great leadership from Elementary all the way through Berkner.

Apollo Junior High School - My son attends this school. He loves it and I could not be happier. The teachers make themselves available if the kids need extra help. The communication with the parents is also excellent....

Too much social promotion and grade bumping going on. I was utterly amazed and asked to be released from contract as soon as possible.
