Sid Miller Academy

There are huge achievement gaps at this school. The school goal sets for small incremental gains as opposed to taking an aggressive approach to move all students to proficiency levels. It is concerning as this is a Title 1 school and I don’t believe that all of the resources are being made available to provide change. Parents aren’t expected to be part of the the culture of the school. If you’re looking to have bake sales and provide photo opportunities and not provide any real input, then this school is for you. Some teachers are not engaging. Pre pandemic, I did witness teachers yelling at their students. Perhaps they believe that this is the way to instruct students, but from the test scores, it does not work. Students perform well from K-2. Data on grades and proficiency looks a bit murky in grades 3-5. This has been an issue pre pandemic and the solution is to set goals to move up the number of students that are a t proficiency up a few points. Using this strategy, children won’t be at 50% proficiency for years to come. If you’re looking for real academic achievement for your child and a real partnership between parents and school, then this may not be the right fit or culture for you and your family.

If I could give it Zero stars I would. My daughter, niece and nephew went to this school. The main office staff is Very Rude and unprofessional . The teachers spend their time focusing on certain students instead of the entire class. I've never seen or met the principle. I'm trying to discharge my child and they won't let me do it. Horrible! Never heard of anything like that!

This school needs a change in administration in order to succeed!!!

My daughter just started school here in the 3K program and too many times its been eluded to the fact that my daughter is allowed to nap with no sheet to protect her face from the material (she brings her sheet every monday and picks it up to be washed every friday). A small class of only 15 students, how do clearly marked belongings get swapped to the wrong families?

the teachers are not nice and they scream at us they are so mean I'm going to 4rth grade and they think I'm crazy but I not wawawawawawa

You are my son had the best foundation that I could have asked for at this school. I recommended this school very highly. The staff is caring and nurturing. Their heart is in the right place. I want to stand in the mountaintop to tell the whole world how much I appreciate the foundation they gave to my son Bethany.
