Open Quote Exceptional school. Top notch academics, absolutely outstanding arts programs, wonderful staff, and a culture and philosophy that shapes kids into confident leaders through positive reinforcement and the rewarding of hard work and good behavior. I’m shocked that this school isn’t ranked more highly than it is on these platforms. It’s a tremendous place. Close Quote

Open Quote This is year is my daughter's second year at DSA. I have nothing but good things to say about the teachers and students there. Everyone is always so helpful and happy to be there. My daughter loves going to school everyday. Everyday she came home with something new she learned. Close Quote

Open Quote Don't be fooled by "A" school. They made my life a living nightmare. My child self esteem was destroyed before I left that school. I had integrity and character concerns with people in the office primarily one of the adminstrators. I would not consider DSA a nuturing environment from my prespective. My child and I was harrased and threatened and ultimately I could not take it anymore nor would I allow him to edure it any longer. I had to take him out of there. Be careful & look out for your children. It is our job to protect them. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
