Posted by a student on 6/4/2025I have graduated from this school and have since graduated from high school and am now in college. I am a Penn state student. This is why my review is at a 2 star, however I am fairly certain I am the only student from my year of graduation who went to college or even trade school. I would say
Posted by a community member on 12/7/2021I wish that students who are showing behavioral and anger issues at an earlier grade level, are given an earlier intervention so that they and their parents can get the help and support that they need to achieve success. This earlier intervention will dramatically improve the learning environment fo
Posted by a parent on 7/18/2012I really like this school. My daughter has been going here for 2 years now and she really enjoys it a lot as well. They have a lot of activities for the children and their families. The only complaint that I would have is they could use more teachers and less children in a class room.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating Average"T! R!" (as its known to those of us who love it.......) is an excellent school for 3 reasons: 1. A confident, enthusiastic, and communicative Principal who sets the tone for the school, by his leadership. 2. A caring and experienced teaching and non-teaching staff who clearly work together as a team, for the benefit of the students. 3. A teaching staff that has obviously chosen TR as their school of choice. This is reflected in their hard work and dedication. I am a parent of a child at the school; I am also a professional educator with 30 years' experience in the classroom. Keep up the great work!Parent Review12y ago - Build Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOn June 21, 2013, the faculty and staff stood outside waving good bye to the bus loads of children from Build Academy as they left for their summer vacation. I wondered what positive new experiences the children would encounter in the next two months to help them build self reliance, resilience and strength to propel these beautiful children to success. Most of the children come from poverty and Build's teachers and staff are often found fighting for precious resources to do their jobs to boost student success and cultivate the children's abilities and skills. What makes the Build Academy children's smiles and hugs so prevalent? Why should Build win the $5,000.00? The answer to that is the dedicated administration, teachers, and staff's belief that the children are our future and we can make all the difference. For the past two years, my teaching duties were split between two schools. I came to know first hand about the two tier education that exists in Buffalo-the one school who has it all and the other that does not. I asked for full time duty at Build for the 2013-14 school year because I believe that Build just as the Phoenix can rise again and be the great school it was.Teacher Review12y ago - Ps 69 Houghton Academy
