MACADEMY School of Science and Technology

i absolutely regret sending my child here. This school is run like a zoo and the students run wild. The principal shows how much he is not in control nor does je tru to get a handle on things when they get out of hand. I'm sure my child could have gotten a better education at another school. The teachers are in a tough position because i feel like they are only soing what they are told to do. If you don't have a good leader then how do you expect others to follow. This is just a horrible school.

I absolutely LOVE this school! My son has been attending this school for about 2 years and he is really excelling socially, emotionally and academically. I love that the class sizes are small and intimate which fosters a better work environment for the children. I also love that many of the older students are really well rounded, respectful and bright and they act as role models for the younger children. The school has been around for about 30 which is a HUGE plus.

The principal is an ineffective leader who does not create a warm, welcoming environment. She yells at parents when they advocate for their children and even yells at parents during meetings. She is unapproachable and as long as she remains the principal of this school, enrollment will never increase.

My son graduated ELS in 2013 and although we had our ups and downs I would still recommend this school. There is a lot that can be improved here but for a small predominately African American school, I think with the support of the community, these improvements can be made. My overall experience was a positive one.

Wonderful School. My child graduated from there and I loved the caring atmosphere that existed there.

Poor academic. Classes are overcrowded, not enough teachers: half of the school year did not have a math teacher! Bullying! Do not attend!
