First Baptist Academy

The Counselor of this school has no professionalism, instead of helping the children what she does is make them feel guilty. The worst experience that has happened to my child is this school.

We have no clue what's going on. Our kid is Failing. It's all smiles.nobody cares.

I have two children who are in Kindergarten and 2nd grade. The teachers are very caring and do their jobs well. My children love their school and teachers very much.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our experience with the lower school was deeply disappointing. The campus looks impressive and they seem to win everyone over with nice breakfast and lunch, but that's where it all ends. The lower school is especially bad. While the upper school is more modern, the lower school feels like you just stepped into 1980. It's ran by people that are completely incompetent and have little regard for children.Academically, the lower school leans hard on conformity. Instead of meeting kids where they are, the approach is to push generic worksheet templates from Etsy on them, then act like that's teaching. For an elementary program, the staff and administration here is about as cold as you can get.Student support did not match the tuition. Counseling and learning resources were hard to access, classroom expectations were inconsistent, and no follow through on promises. New families are welcomed with nice events, but once school starts you quickly find out what this place really is... a networking group for mediocre income parents. They really don't care about the children much, almost as if using them as tools to make connections. People here care about making an extra $40k per year than they do about the children.Every school has a bad day, but what mattered here was the pattern. Lower school leadership is anything but child centered. If you are looking for a place that partners with parents, adapts to individual learners, and communicates openly, you should keep looking. The branding by their marketing team is very well done, but other than that, this school is just a money grab and a poor experience for your children.

Could not be more happy about the development of my son. His confidence has taken a 180 after the first month of his attendance. The values he is learning at Cedar Montessori are priceless. Thanks so much for being a part of his life Cedar!

This school has had its problems but this year they fired a bunch of teachers due to poor enrollment. The Head of School just quit and the entire board just quit. This school is failing
