All three of my kids have attended/still attending Franklin Accelerated Academy East and this school has always exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful how quickly our kids learned to read, and are excelling in almost all subjects. The teachers are mostly all amazing and care for the students.

My experience with this school was a nightmare, the principal acts like a white savior and the front desk ladies are incredibly incompetent. The teachers are so evil, they don’t care about their safety, and kids with learning disabilities are pushed asides either no real help.

I must say that the drop off feels very unsafe to be having elementary kids. Staff does their best to address this, but it still doesn't remove my fear fro my Kindergartner. Unfortunately my kid hates school now and has had many issues making friends and opening up about her days in school. Her teacher does do her best but i feel maybe she has too many kids assigned to her for a kindergartner teacher. They do address my daughters second language barrier and she has been able to overcome it and catch up with her class. The environment does not feel great for my kid either. Only some of the playgrounds have shade.

My last kid graduated in 2006 and 10-16 years later, I definitely see the big picture that Catholic School makes the difference. It was especially important that the school supported our family values--we made life long friends- people that we still hang out with today. Academically, Christ the King is strong, and my kids all made through high school and college, and master's degrees.
