ACCLAIM Academy

"This school is kinda good because all the teachers are nice but I got into a fight with a annoying kid and told him to stop talking and told him to be quiet but for no reason comes up to me and grabs my shirt and throws me to the floor but good thing the teachers saw and give him a red."

"My grandson goes to this school and I love that he is learning about virtues and character development, not to mention learning Spanish and being a member of the chess club. The school makes it a point to teach children about positive character traits and how to be good citizens. Further, the dress code allows students to focus more on their education, rather than the “who’s wearing what” that so often is an issue for other schools. ACCLAIM has high expectations for their students and, to me, that’s extremely important for their intellectual growth and overall development."

"My child has had an excellent experience at ACCLAIM Academy. He was very successful academically. His primary grade teachers were caring and attentive. The social environment, especially in the 2021–2022 school year, was welcoming and thoughtful of the needs of the children, coming to school after experiencing distance-learning programs for so long. As a parent, having a child in school the first two years of the pandemic, I felt like my child was well taken care of. The school was very well organized and prepared for distance-learning and eventually in person classes. They took many precautions and somehow avoided a lot of the drama that I saw at many other schools. ACCLAIM provides as calm, peaceful and focused a learning environment as is possible in any school setting be it district, charter, or private. The office staff is friendly and helpful and the school has operated with the same Director for its entire 25 year history. That is something that can be said for very few schools and very few administrators. In my experience, it means something really good and special is happening at ACCLAIM. Our educational system is set up for school choice and that means no school is suitable for every child. I believe that ACCLAIM suits the needs of children who flourish in a smaller, calmer, kinder learning environment and bonus, it’s tuition free."

"I volunteer with multiple elementary schools with a program that involves literacy and expression. The students at this school are hands down the most capable students I've worked with. I've also noticed that teachers and admin treat the students with a much higher degree of respect than most schools. Once my kids are old enough, I will definitely be sending them to this school."

"I volunteer at ACCLAIM after school and have had the pleasure of getting to know some amazing students, parents, teachers and administrators. I take my 4 year old with me every time and I must say that by far it is one of the safest schools I've been involved with! The students are assisted to focus on developing virtues and excellence, which has provided a unique and wonderful opportunity to work with them after school, where in contrast there's been so much struggle in other schools. The high expectation from students is standard for helping them strive and achieve excellence. I also find the students are more content and not bombarded with homework after spending hours in school."
