This school is phenomenal. It offers a fantastic education and strays from the one-size-fits-all approach of many other schools. The kids are challenged according to their individual abilities and the teachers, staff, and principal are top rate. I cannot say enough good things about this school.

Our daughter is now in 4th grade and has attended CTA for 2 years. We previously had her at an advanced school. Do to a move we needed to find something comparable and closer. After researching many schools (I did a 15 mile search) we found CTA. It has been a great experience. This year our Kindergardener

At many of the schools the staff in the office was rude. Also, the test scores were not up to my expectation. At, CTA the principal is always available and I still am amazed at how she knows all of the students names. I would recomend this school to any parent who is in search of a school to challege their child. Read less

My son attended another elementary school when we moved to Arizona in December 2005. Due to lack of discipline, overcrowding, and remedial teaching, I pulled him out in February 2006 and homeschooled him until he could get into CTA-Freedom. I am so pleased with the school. My son has a fabulous teacher

My child attended CTA Liberty before Freedom and Freedom does not live up to the standards of Liberty. The school has some excellent teachers and does teach math 1 year ahead but the other subjects are at grade level. There are many discipline problems at this school. Problems go unpunished or un-noticed

Enroll your kids in this school! In a growing area where academics and standards on conduct have lacked over the years, CTA Freedom and its staff are a wonderful addition to the community. Your children will be academically challenged and expected to behave appropriately. The staff and the curriculum

This school is wonderful! It is traditional and the students wear uniforms...Which I feel is a good thing. Academics are all 1 year ahead (4th-graders use 5th grade books). So, if you have a gifted child, or even just a child who needs a challenge, this is the school for you. The teachers are fantastic,

My son attended this school during it's first year of opening. The teacher he had was great! However, I can not say the same about the rude and unprofessional front office staff members. I would volunteer on a bi-weekly basis in my son's class. Everytime I had to deal with someone in the office, I was

I also had an issue during the beginning of the year due to the 4-5 year olds not being supervised by a teacher and/or staff member of the school after morning drop-off. I brought this to the principal's attention right away. I had seen children fighting, swearing and etc. The issue did not get fixed until 2 weeks later and involvement of the Superintendent. Now my son attends a different school with staff members who care. Read less
