What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, August 23, 2017

It is unfortunate that the name of your school is "Success Academy". I have experienced first hand how you do not differentiate in order for children to succeed. How fast administration is to judge children and not give them a chance to become successful individuals. Success comes with hard work, dedication, developmentally appropriate practices, differentiation and accommodating the needs of different children. Your academy needs to accommodate and modify for the children, NOT the children accommodating for your program. It's with sadness that I must say that my experience at Success Academy has not been much of a success. Close Quote
