This school was the most challenging educational environment I have encountered in my career. The school suffers from a severe lack of care and understanding from the administrative staff, which undermines the support teachers need to succeed. Additionally, there is a significant disengagement among
Posted by a teacher on 12/21/2024I can not in good faith recommend this school to any parent. I am a current student at Young Audiences Charter School High School. First, the schedules. The school schedules are not consistent and get changed every 2 days in the first month of school. I cannot have the peace of mind of knowing I am
Posted by a student on 8/14/2023Absolutely hate it. Only 2 teachers of mine actually taught me anything. The other teachers taught me absolutely nothing. I almost got into 3 different fights with the same girl because she was messy. The school is run down and they have no SPED program. Horrible school would not reccomend.
Posted by a community member on 6/13/2023I can’t in good conscience recommend you send your kid here.
Posted by a parent on 2/9/2022My kids started at YA when it opened and we were happy there, until this past year. They have attempted an expansion and it has been a dog and pony show of epic proportions. Too many kids, not enough space, not enough staff. There is no recourse for the kids that do the bullying, they system by whic

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageEn general tengo una perseccion muy diferente de la escuela con los últimos comentarios que dejaron en años anteriores ya que los maestros están con contacto con los padres interesados en saber como se desarrollan sus hijos y siempre enfocados en ser ese apoyo en la escuela cuando mi hija renia una duda ella siempre le preguntaba a su maestra de grado y si había un rendimiento bajo siempre me comunicaron para juntas ser una mayor apoyo para que superará y mejoraráParent Review2y ago - Terrytown Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attends this school and have been for a few years now .. the teachers communicating with parents are horrible . They take forever to email you back of you have questions .. They will not take the time to make sure each kid understands the classwork instead just let them fail and never discuss with you about any problems they may be having in class that makes them have these ending results … I wish I would have kept my child at Ray St Pierre instead!! At lease their teachers keep you updated on your child needs in the classroom which would allow you to work on it at home …. Worst decision I made … There aren’t enough teachers there because they love being a teacher it’s more for just a pay checkParent Review1y ago - Stepping Stones Montessori

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWONDERFUL little school and amazing staff! From the moment I met Ms. Dale and Ms. Joan, I knew this would be the school for my child. They genuinely care about their students and provide an excellent education. My 3 year old daughter is in the pre-primary class, Ms.Dale and her staff are extremely dedicated, knowledgeable and great with the kids. Looking forward to another great year!Parent Review7y ago - Calvary Baptist School
