Alternative Computerized Education (ACE) Charter High School

The teachers seem to turkey care about their students.

My experience with the teachers have been wonderful.

This school is adequate representation of why the public school system is so low in Arizona. Some teachers and faculty have been there so long they are no longer effective. Scores have plummeted and it seems like no one cares. A principal that seemed like she could make a difference in this was chased out by a subset of parents that in no way represent how most of us think. My nephew who is in kindergarten at a charter school is able to read and write already while my child is barely at preschool standard. It is quite sad to see parents and teachers more focused on social aspects of the school rather than the academics of the children. We are moving my child in hopes that we can rectify how far behind they are after being here for kindergarten. I would think twice before placing my child here. Some parents and staff preach kindness as well as community but their actions are the opposite. School safety is also a concern especially in the after care program. Ratios are NOT followed and there is no standard. We gave public school a chance and have been very disheartened with this school. For those that disagree just look at stats, AZ ranks at 48-50th in public school education and TUSD itself ranks 11 out of 17 in the Tucson area. There are better options out there.

My child disliked this school. The principal lacks leadership skills and walks around like she’s some robo cop. Poor leaders make poor rated schools.

In my experience the school has been less than kind towards me or my child. The staff have been rude and abrasive. The lack of resources and competent staff leads me to believe that children who attend this program are going to have severe educational hurdles in their future.
