We have 2 children that have been at TRA for 6 years. Before that, they were in Tipton County schools and the difference is unbelievable. The safe, Christian environment at TRA makes school feel like home to them. They are comfortable with their peers and their teachers and therefore able to relax

The headmaster is dedicated to the advancement of technology and school facilities and also to the professional development of the faculty. The education that my children are receiving is top notch and their test scores are consistently high. We feel like the tuition is very reasonable compared to other private schools in the Memphis area, and the facilities are better. As with all schools, there have been a few bumps in the road, but they have been handled in a professional and timely manner. Read less

I love that we have chosen TRA. My child is learning so much, and he is loved by his teachers. He is learning things that my students did not learn when I was teaching a grade level higher. Parents are involved with their children's education here and they are accepted by the teachers.

Tipton-Rosemark Academy is a great school. It is small enough where my child and I are know by all the teachers and administrators. The only downside to the school is that the headmaster wants it to constantly be more of a public school rather than a private school. Homecoming has been listed as only

This school was the biggest disappointment I've ever experienced. The people that run this school are more concerned about appearance and parental conduct than the welfare and general education of the students that attend. Christian ethics are not practiced at this school, contrary to what is published

The test scores of some of the T. county schools are actually even higher. This school is very known for it's student expulsion rate. I do not recommend it. Read less

Our children have been in private schools all their life. We have two at TRA and they have been there for two years. I am thinking of making the switch to Tipton County schools. The tuition keeps going up and I think they would get the same education at a public school. My kids have so much homework
... Read more every night I am wondering what they are doing in school all day. Middle school has started slacking on the feed back from teachers. We use to get weekly reports on our children's grades. Now I have to wait for a progress report. There is no program available or help offered if a child is not doing well in a subject. The clicks are also pretty evident. I do feel like my kids are very safe here. Read less

We have three children at TRA (5K, 4th, and 5th)and have been very happy with the school. We would be keeping them in the school if we weren't moving out of state. Although we were a little disappointed that there is no GT program, the school was very responsive to our children's needs. For example,

The only thing we won't miss is the high expectation in terms of parental involvement, specifically with incessant requests for money for projects and fund-raisers. It's not a lot of money, but I wish they had a buy-out option at the beginning of the year, because it's hard to keep up with all the requests. Still, it keeps the tuition cost down, and some parents enjoy it. Read less

This is a loving school that is a bit misguided. It needs some strong leadership that will help grow the school into a real college prep school instead of a 5 day a week church.

I have 2 nieces in 2 different school zones near here that are in the same grade as my child and they are learning the same or more advanced subject matter than my child. Also, TRA is not as safe an environment as the public schools in Tipton County. We are transferring to Tipton County schools fall of 2006. Read less
