I am thrilled to share my exceptional experience with Tuskegee Airmen Global Academy (TAG) and the transformative impact it has had on my scholar's education. Enrolling my child at TAG three years ago has proven to be the best decision I could have made.

One of the standout aspects of TAG is its commitment to fostering a holistic environment of health and wellness for all students. The school goes beyond academic excellence and recognizes the importance of nurturing the well-being of every learner. Through a range of initiatives, TAG ensures that students have the support they need to thrive both academically and personally.

While you may come across some negative feedback from the past, I urge you not to be misled. TAG has demonstrated remarkable progress academically over the past five years. Year after year, the school has incrementally improved its academic performance, reflecting a dedication to constant growth and improvement. This commitment to excellence is evident in the positive trajectory of academic achievement at TAG.

What sets TAG apart is its unwavering focus on the journey of improvement. The school actively involves families in this process, ensuring that parents and guardians are informed and engaged partners in their child's education. TAG's dedication to continuous improvement extends to all stakeholders, fostering a collaborative and supportive community.

At the heart of TAG's mission are their guiding principles, often referred to as their "Northstar." These principles underscore the commitment to meeting the individual needs of every student. The school understands that each learner is unique and strives to provide a personalized and inclusive educational experience. This student-centric approach ensures that no child's needs are overlooked, creating an environment where every student can thrive.

In summary, my experience with Tuskegee Airmen Global Academy has been nothing short of phenomenal. The school's commitment to holistic education, continuous improvement, and meeting the needs of every student sets it apart. I wholeheartedly recommend TAG to any family seeking an exceptional educational experience that goes beyond academics. 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.
