Read what parents are saying about Soaring Heights Charter School
I recently had the opportunity to enroll my child in the Soaring Heights school, and I must say that our experience was quite disappointing. While I had high hopes for this institution, it fell short of my expectations in several key areas. Firstly, the school's infrastructure left much to be desired. The facilities were outdated and quite small. This not only affected the overall learning environment but student were unable to socialize with each other. Moreover, the teaching methods employed by the faculty were ineffective and uninspiring. It seemed as though they followed a one-size-fits-all approach, failing to cater to the diverse learning styles and individual needs of the students. The lack of innovation and creativity in their teaching strategies made the classroom experience dull and unengaging. Additionally, the communication between the school administration and parents was abysmal. There was a noticeable lack of transparency regarding important school policies, events, and academic progress updates. It often felt like parents were kept in the dark until there was a more serious concern, making it difficult to actively participate in their child's education. Furthermore, the extracurricular activities offered at the school were severely limited. While a well rounded education involves more than just academics, Soaring Heights school seemed to overlook the importance of providing diverse opportunities for students to explore their interests and talents outside of the classroom. Lastly, the school's approach to addressing student concerns and grievances was unsatisfactory. To be honest, it was poor. The administration appeared to be dismissive, unresponsive, and unwilling to take meaningful and constructive actions. This lack of support and empathy left my children feeling unheard and discouraged. In conclusion, Soaring Heights school's poor infrastructure, ineffective teaching methods, lack of communication, limited extracurricular activities, and inadequate student support make it an unsatisfactory choice for those seeking a quality educational experience. As a concerned parent, I would strongly advise considering other options that prioritize holistic development and foster a positive learning environment.

My experience with Soaring Heights has been fantastic. I have two children who attend the school and they both receive extra support when needed. The curriculum is engaging and rigorous; it pushes the students to challenge themselves.

Amazing! Soaring Heights is a warm and loving environment for my children. I feel they are challenged at a high level which Is a lot of work, but well worth it when I see how much my children know about the works around them.

My son has been in this school since kindergarten. He best part of this school is it is small. Every kids get attention. Teachers know every kids in school. The teachers are responsible. They care for education. In the first year my son was nervous about going to school. The teacher and shool nurse helped a lot. Now he is confident and love to school. They also have very nice summer enrichment program. Love this school!
