Calvary Academy

Absolutely horrible school. Within a week of enrollment, I'd already had so many issues with administration I went ahead and enrolled her in another school for the following year. As soon as I heard they had an open spot for the remainder of the year, I pulled her out.The issues:Told the school she would have a watch to text and call me and her father, only when she sent me an audio clip of a teacher yelling at her and I took it to the principal did they have a problem with it-- because they realize they are now being held accountable.During enrollment, I wasn't pleased to hear that because of Covid, parents aren't allowed entry for pretty much any reason. I later found out (when I finally got in to go to a PTA meeting), that all these parents in the PTA are on campus all the time volunteering. When leaving from that meeting, I found my daughter not playing at recess but hiding in a corner because she was cold. Why wasn't there a teacher helping her? I would visit and wave to her at recess some days and the teachers always side eyed me and made me feel terrible for coming at my daughter's request bc she didn't like being in school. Once while watching recess, I saw a maybe 5 yr old screaming and crying being dragged by two grown adults. I was in such shock, I still feel like I hallucinated it.During drop off, if you get there right at 7:30, the teachers will be looking you in the eye, watching your kid get out and lock the gate so you have to take the kid into the office to get into school. The playground is mainly unshaded and sand. Please spare yourself and child of this school and go somewhere else. There are amazing charter and select schools nearby with much better staff, facilities, and policies.

I'm about to ruffle some feathers. Yet I personally don't care. I'm disappointed due to the fact. That this schedule came highly recommended. From various parents and adults overall. My child started this school. Brand spanking new but the principal. At my daughters previous school. Bad mouth me to staff at Roosevelt. To the point where staff. Such as the teacher and principal. We're making snide remarks about me. To or in front of my child. And because my child informed me. Everytime I'd confront the staff. The teacher was petty and ignored my messages. Surrounding my daughters education overall. Intentionally giving my child assignments above her comprehension. And when I'd speak on my concerns. The very nasty principal would. Target my child pulling her. Out of class disrupting her learning time. Pretending niceness towards my child. Around other staff members yet being mean. During the interaction while alone with my child. She'd call my daughter name's. And would comment on my looks. Which is very unprofessional and quite frankly. Had nothing to do with;the price of tea in China. From my understanding instead of. The teacher and principal doing their job. By providing structure and safety. Their time was filled with fraternization. Of any male entering school grounds. Or harassing my child to spite me. My child began not wanting to attend school. That's when I knew. I had to remove her from Roosevelt. I had enough on them. To file a formal complaint. With an Ombudsman or board of education. Yet I opted to remove my child. Also my child wasn't having. Her needs met from an academic standpoint. She wasn't being taught properly. Or treated fairly in my opinion. And the way that things were going. I knew that my child. Would've been just shuffled through. To the next grade without proper knowledge.

Nice Montessori setting but children must be neurotypical. Children with even the slightest difficulties are pushed out.
