Reviews of Orange County Preparatory Academy
"School is good, the only problem is the before/after care program, the girl that is in charge of watching the kids is very abrasive, unfriendly and not manners whatsoever! is very dissappointing to see that someone like that is the one watching our kids who are learning and watching the way she behave. Not good morning or afternoon when one enters the room, she will see you and ignore you and when you get her attention she'll look at you like you're annoying her , when we are paying good money for a few hours of care for our kids. Very sad because I'm not the only parent that thinks this about this girl."
"I moved to Orlando from Maryland this past August. The local public school designated for my daughter did not work with my schedule at the time, so I turned to Google and found OCPA. I'm so glad I did. My second grader is thriving with the small class sizes and individual attention. She has specials like Spanish and technology she enjoys that she would not get in public school. Her teacher is very hands on and open with communication. I recently moved to a location where the public school is very close and the schedule works with mine. Since my daughter is doing so well, I had to think about it. I went to the office to discuss school placement and the principal, Mr. Higgins was extremely accommodating and informative. He explained the teaching methods utilized at OCPA, benefits of small class sizes, the STEM emphasis and gifted program. I could see he was passionate about the school and had an extensive background in education. I now drive my daughter 20-30 minutes so she can continue to attend OCPA. That's how much I believe in this school for her."
"My family and I just moved to Orange County from Northwest Florida in early December. By the middle of the month, we were becoming acquainted with Orange County Preparatory Academy. I have two perspectives I can share about OCPA. One is that of a parent and one is of a teacher. As a parent, the school has been fantastic for my second grader. He has some social and sensory issues and the school has addressed these beautifully. Staff works well together to address not only the needs of my child, but of the other children in his class. The small class size has been, in my opinion, one of the many factors that are contributing to his successful transition. Other factors that set my child and me at ease are the great relationships teachers have with their students, the way administration knows the children by name, and the sense of wonder and enjoyment that the curriculum and activities bring to students. It has been awhile sense I have seen so many children LOVE learning. As a teacher, I can honestly say that I feel so supported here by parents, peers, and administrators. This sets me at ease and makes me feel more comfortable teaching students in ways that are engaging and innovating. After a decade in education, I finally feel that I am among people that will encourage me to push my students to reach their potential while also pushing me to reach mine. Thanks OCPA for making us feel like a member of the family!"
"I can assure you if you care about your child you will be extremely disappointed with this school. Dealing with the revolving door of teachers and administrators has been sickening and beyond frustrating. I’ve let my child down enrolling him here. If you are looking forward to a progress report or report card forget it, it doesn’t happen here. The FSA was delayed every day with a different excuse. You can’t access your kids grades ever. No one returns calls teachers don’t reply to emails. I felt like I was dropping off my kid to a hang out. It should be shut down and locked up. No kid should be there."
"Horrid school! I came from Oviedo which has grade A schools thinking that a charter school who preachers about STEM being a huge focus, it was a bunch of crock. The Principle never returned my emails or calls EVER and I wasn't rude or unprofessional, I just wanted to raise my concerns about my sons experience and his teachers lack of communication skills with the parents. Nope, never bothered to contact me. My son has a focus issue so he needs extra time to finish his assignments. I did not get a meeting with the guidance counselor until the first week of November in which I later found out my son was being spent to other class rooms as a punishment for not focusing on his work. Sometimes to a grade lower sometimes to a grade higher and when I found out, my son verified it was true and he said it was always for an hour. So my son was sitting in other grades classes rooms learning nothing for 1 hour out of the days when he wouldn't finish his school work. His teacher was a huge mess. He didn't seem like he was organized and had a hard time expressing himself to me when I would ask him about homework and classroom assignments so I could only imagine how the kids couldn't understand him either. Many parents have removed their kids from this school already and we are in November. Many children have also been tested by their new schools and have been told that they are academically behind. One child has to now take 2 math classes in order to move onto middle school. One child was pinned down during P.E. by a bully and no adults were around to see it. My son witnessed bullies in his classroom picking on other kids and said his teacher wouldn't do anything. The classrooms are VERY VERY TINY. It feels like sardines in a can. The walls are plain. There is nothing appealing about this school for children. No colors anywhere and a play ground that's for toddlers only. The parents were extremely rude during the drop off line which is another hot mess. I witnessed a mom screaming at the top of her lungs at her son which made all the kids stop and stare at him. She was pushing him and hitting him in front of the kids and the aftercare girls didn't really know how to handle the situation. The entire experience was a complete nightmare!!!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL!!! Seminole county Oviedo school are a thousand times much more organized, caring, proactive, involved than this school. Just stay away, stay FAR FAR AWAY!!"
