Hope Academy

We did not need to be a D school, and if we not have a federal safety net stopping us from dropping multiple grades we would be an F school. We had a great principal who was making progress, then replaced with a young woman who stayed in the office talking with the staff all day. Twice I seen her turn away free help from the state offering to train teachers on how to get better scores. TWICE, and that's just what I seen. Our science teacher said they tried helping us all year but the principal wouldn't even talk with them. We need help. Bad teachers stay because they are related to people in the district office. This was the worst year ever. Does anybody care cept me?

This school is amazing, amazing teachers, amazing principal, amazing students, I love gadsden magnet school, its an very interective school, the best points on the fcat, I'm a brazilian student , in the secont month that I came I already learned english, not just how to write but how to speak too, I'm going back to Brazil, but if I could , I would stay in this school, by the way I'm in 5th grade, the 5th grade is an very interective class, the teacher is lovely, and they're very concerned about our education.

My daughter only went here for a few months had to pull her out and put her in private school! This is a terrible School and had several different problems from day one

This is not the school to place your child! Many of the teachers are not certified to teach in any state and behave worse than the students. This is a leaderless school and should be taken over by KIPP, Edison Schools, CharterUSA or an entity that knows what charter schools are designed for...
