Southside Academy

please send your child elsewhere and search around. this school has gone to the dogs since Sister Mary and her administration left. She was very selective on who got accepted in because the reputation was so high for academics and moral. Now all types of behavior kids are here. The new principal runs the heck out of the security guard for issues that don't even pertain to his job such as making a child come from under a desk...really?! test scores have declined there's very little academic intervention programs and help for students struggling with math and various common core subjects. i'm glad this is the last year i have to deal with this place. it is a melting pot now for bad teachers and students. so sad the legacy Sister Mary and Jerome built is now one of the worse! this is a 2016 review.

I was just at the school today to enroll my daughter in school and study the staff at the front desk, questioning me. Why is the police officer questioning me about my daughter that she doesn't know? My daughter only been at the school when she was in pre-K and the officer is like who's your daughter and the environment at that school is not great. They need to shut the whole school down. The front desk experience is always horrible and I know this due to the fact people are rude. My daughter already been to the school before my oldest child and I always had a bad experience so I'm glad I didn't rope my daughter today for next year.

This school is a very great opportunity for when you move on to high school. This school is very rigorous and effective. They honestly test you on you academic strength. When you make it through elementary and middle you have an opportunity to go to the high school. When accepted to high school classes will be accelerated, instead of one year for one grade it is one year for two grades. In 11th and 12th grade you will be able to then go be entered into college classes where you will then graduate with your associates degree.
