I moved to this district hoping for a decent special education system and a decent education for my children. Unfortunately, our experience has been awful.My children were originally in a special-needs classroom and were then moved into an integrated classroom based on the Child Study Team’s recomme

Posted by a parent on 3/14/2025Best School in the universe, best principal Mrs Ritz, all the teacher and staff are very kind and they just dont teach about number letter, they teach about respect, kindness, love, sharing. thanks for everything
Posted by a parent on 5/11/2021It is actually the best school ever.
Posted by a parent on 10/28/2018I believe the school struggles in the academics dept. Classrooms seems dull and uninviting. Parent conferences are rushed. Communication can be inconsistent depending on teacher. With such a diverse student body a diverse staff would be beneficial for students.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI loved this school for my son. The teachers were exceptional and the Principal Honeyman was great. They encouraged the best behavior and the awards they did for their students were inspiring to the parents and the students. I miss this school. My family moved to Cherry Hill in the middle of 2nd grade and we had to transfer him out. The Cherry Hill schools do not compare to this school. My son was thriving there and he misses all of his friends.Parent Review4mo ago - Christian Academy of Merchantville
