Academic Alternative Education

Principal refuses to make reasonable accommodation for my daughter with a disability. It’s ridiculous and honestly disgusting. They need to be forced to do trainings and ADA in this school.

I can't say enough good things about this school's staff, from the bottom to the top. They are all exceptional. Especially the ASD teachers and support staff.

This review is based in my personal experience. This school gets the good scores thanks to the parents who in their majority support the kids learning, many even pay tutors for the kids to excel and get good grades in the gifted program along with the work of the good teachers who provide a healthy environment for the kids to learn. The principal in turn is always pushing up sending emails through the teachers. The school has a few very good teachers who are a bless for their students and it also has some bad teachers that can be a real nightmare for the kids and families. They have one particular teacher who was very mean and verbally abusive, she psychologically abused my kid for 3 months and I had to do all in my power to get my kid removed to another classroom. The school did not do anything to correct that teacher and it’s my understanding she is still there, so be aware. The bathrooms that the kids use are always in need of toilet papers so if your kid has to do #2 there is nothing to clean their butts. The ladies at the front office are all nice and respectful. The school love to collect money from the parents so they have lots of activities through out the school year to get the money. They say it’s voluntary but they do pressure the kids to make their parents do the donations. In four years that my kid was in this school we had 3 different principals so make your own conclusion.

I’ve had a very negative experience with Boca Prep and would not recommend this school to any parent. The administration and staff are extremely unprofessional. The superintendent does not take accountability when she’s wrong and chooses to ignore concerns rather than address them. Teachers have lied about students, including my own 3-year-old, which was very troubling and unacceptable.Since my son started at this school, I’ve faced constant problems. The financial department clearly cares more about collecting money than about the students. I was supposed to be reimbursed for a payment, but despite ongoing communication, they never followed through. Instead, they took the amount directly from my security deposit. When I called to discuss this, the financial department representative yelled at me and hung up on me, which was extremely unprofessional.On top of the financial issues, my son did not learn anything meaningful while attending. The quality of teaching is poor, and I was not the only parent who felt this way. Other parents expressed the same concerns about the lack of learning and the unprofessional behavior of the staff and superintendent. In fact, one superintendent left and the other was fired due to issues with students and parents.Most of us ended up moving our kids to other schools because Boca Prep was not providing the education or environment our children deserved. This school is not beneficial for children, and parents should beware before enrolling their kids here. It’s so bad the turn Google reviews off.

One star. We deeply regret sending our child to this school.After we withdrew and enrolled him elsewhere, we were shocked to discover how far behind he was academically. He had been placed in higher-level classes, but at the new school he was immediately downgraded after testing because he simply didn’t have the knowledge. That was a huge wake-up call.Academic quality is inconsistent at best. Some teachers are good, others have attitude and low expectations. Leadership feels extremely weak and lacks direction.The business office is a total mess.The student culture was another major concern. Many kids are status-focused, materialistic, and exclusionary. Bullying and social pressure are real issues. If your child is kind, sensitive, or academically motivated, this may not be a healthy environment. We saw negative changes in our own child.Food is poor, uniforms were downgraded to cheap polyester, and overall standards seem to be slipping.Elementary may be fine, but middle and high school were extremely disappointing for us. We also know multiple families who have left.Do your research before enrolling. We wish someone had warned us.
