Jericho Christian Academy

The primary years were great, but the academics as the students progress is not good. There are a few good teachers in the upper grades, but then there are others that seem to be either uncertified or substitutes. Also, there is no control over student behavior. The administration is not transparent about what is going on in the school, especially with funds. I am thinking about pulling my children and placing them in the neighborhood school.

Pues el entorno en casi todo se puede decir desorganizacion total irrespetuosos la diferencia entre adentro del salón y afuera varía un poco dependiendo del maestro Casi todos necesitan tomar clases de ética y educación para tratar a las personas adultas y niños .Un ambiente de maltratados.

The school is horrible. They think that because the school is located and a low income area that is OK to give these students the bare minimum. The test scores are low because they’re not teaching a students nor getting the kids to help that they need. The principal doesn’t know or interact with the kids and she’s been there for over 18 years and we wonder why this school has low test scores. The kids are not getting the proper education because of the staff.

This school is so amazing. The teachers and staff are so supportive of the students, they really try to make learning fun and understandable for students. They provide many activities and event which are free. They do a great job encouraging students. The amount of helpful programs available assists a lot. The staff is very respectful, responsive and always willing to assist in any way possible.

This school suck!!! My son went to this school and didn’t learn nothing!

Under Ms. Sothern’s leadership, Lake Arbor Elementary has become a shining example of intentionality, and transparency. The positive shift in school culture is undeniable.The holiday gift giveaway was a heartwarming event that demonstrated the school’s thoughtfulness and organization. Students were able to pick their gifts, have their special moments captured with Santa and the Grinch, and even received batteries to ensure they could use their gifts immediately—a small detail that made a big impact. Teachers and staff like Ms. Smalls and Ms. Ferguson, along with dedicated volunteers, truly made the day magical for the students.What also stands out this year is the State of Schools offering, something I don’t recall happening previously. It’s a valuable opportunity for families to understand the school’s successes and growth areas, reinforcing the transparency that is greatly appreciated. Ms. Sothern’s sincere yet firm approach sets high expectations for staff, students, and families, inspiring everyone to rise to the occasion. The admin team, educators, and volunteers work tirelessly every day, and their efforts deserve recognition. I’m proud of the dynamic direction Lake Arbor is heading and grateful for the opportunity to benefit from the positive shift in the climate and culture.
