Thomas Jefferson Elementary School

My children attended this school; it's very good, and they can improve a lot more. I know education has changed a lot; they need to implement more aggressive teaching programs. And implementing uniforms as clothing is a very good alternative that helps with uniformity.

This school has been extremely disappointing. My child has a speech delay, yet the school has failed to provide speech services, claiming they are understaffed. That is not an acceptable excuse.Communication is virtually nonexistent. Reaching a teacher is nearly impossible despite repeated calls and emails.On top of this, my daughter has been bullied by a male student. I have reported this multiple times, and no action has been taken.I am beyond frustrated. The lack of services, poor communication, and failure to protect my child show a serious lack of accountability and care.

I've been going to OPCA for a while now. I can say some of the other reviews are not true. Old Plank is a good school overall and includes learning about the Bible a lot. The only problems I really have are the teachers not wanting to teach. One of them plays videos on the screen instead of teaching the class. The only reason he is a teacher is because the other one left. The substitutes are sometimes people that are still in college and don't even have a degree. They aren't fit at ALL. The Chorus teacher doesn't know how to sing and doesn't teach at all. Other than that, I've had a wonderful time at OPCA. Everyone was welcoming and nice to me. All the teachers are kind and I have someone nice to talk to. OPCA has your back and they show a Christ-Like testimony. I was getting bullied but now that I've opened up, the bullying has lessened. I love Old Plank and recommend it to your student. As a person that currently goes there, I can say it's a safe and friendly environment!

My sons attended the lower and upper school . The teachers really care and love the students . The curriculum is challenging and Mrs. Johnson is a great principal ! Students have the opportunity to succeed if they work hard and want to succeed . Dual enrollment; advance classes and Florida Virtual all available . Well rounded ; small classes ; no bullying ; character building ; the downside is you sometimes get students who parents want them there and not the child or student who can not handle the work load because they are coming from a school where they performed poorly as a result they can be disruptive because they are failing. Good school if you want your child to know the Bible ; study hard; loved by teachers who really care; The pay off: PHCA have graduates who attended:UCF; Naval Academy; Notra Dame; UF; Seton Hall; don’t know why they don’t let people know they produce quality graduates .

This is my daughter’s folkiest year at Trinity Christian Academy. Well as she was on the Basketball team and I brought up several concerns about the coaching strategies which seem to isolate certain children for whatever reasons. My concerns were dismissed. I was also met by the Assistant Athletic director who stated they can do as they please to the children that attend this school. As this was concerning to have someone like him in any form of leadership I then found out that several teachers have been fired because they were sexting some of the students at the school. It is documented. Even though the teachers had been fired this still concerns me.
