Our daughter has attended Da Vinci Academy since Kindergarten and is now thriving in second grade. From the very beginning, we have been continuously impressed by the level of care, professionalism, and dedication shown by everyone involved in making this school such a wonderful place.The teaching staff are incredibly thoughtful, nurturing, and attentive to each child's unique needs. They go above and beyond not just academically, but emotionally and socially as well, creating a safe and inspiring environment for learning.The office staff and support team are equally amazing—always warm, responsive, and helpful. Communication is clear and timely, and it’s obvious that the entire school works in harmony to ensure every family feels seen and supported.There is a genuine love and passion that radiates from every corner of Da Vinci Academy. The attention to detail, the consistent outreach, and the strong sense of community make it feel like so much more than just a school—it truly feels like an extended family.We couldn’t be happier with our experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend Da Vinci Academy to any family looking for a nurturing, high-quality educational environment. It's been a gift to watch our daughter grow here.

I plan on switching to another school near my home soon. Staff assumes each student is automatically in tip top shape and brushes off those who need more support. I have two chronic medical conditions that make it so I feel physically unwell frequently and henceforth induces regular absence. Staff quite literally told me to tough it out despite the fact that doing so poses severe risk that could lead to dangerous circumstances for me such as falling and getting hurt along the way or fainting. I just last month started going to therapy and instantly got diagnosed with two mental illnesses. I can’t help but think that DCC is to blame for the worsening on my physical and mental health. Oh, and if you have any hobbies or sports you like to do that aren’t related to DCC forget it. They expect their students to do sports for the school, clubs for the school, work for the school, and absolutely nothing else. Not to mention the fact that over half of the work we’re given is busywork. Don’t count on teachers to teach; roughly 50% of my classes are self taught. All in all, DCC has some major cracks in their system that make it so if you aren’t surrounding your life around academics and have no obstacles in your way, you won’t succeed.

After some really bad experiences regarding a schools response to my daughter’s individual needs this school has been a godsend. I’ll never be able to fully express my appreciation of thier support to our entire family through some difficult times, not to mention thier support of my daughter in particular. I hope we never have to attend another school as I have a second grader up and coming here as well. This school is a shining example of the direction schools need to be looking in how to better serve our students in today’s challenging and complicated environment.
