East Point Academy

Would not go back. Only reason we attended was for early second language training, but it was at a cost of poor English and Math training, a terrible lack of oversight and serious discipline issues with staff and administration...including nurses.

Supportive staff, caring students, rigorous academics. Great school.

A+. Great teachers, staff, academics. Supportive environment.

I believe that I would rate my experience of this school as just bad. I wrote a whole entire rant on Google reviews, and I didn't feel like writing it again.

I must say this is the best school year we have thus far. When the new principal took over, a lot of families came back. There was not a high turnover rate this year compared to previous years. The new principal took on a lot of mess when she came, but it was handled with such class. We even had our first ever black history program. However, I was extremely disappointed with the turnout for that event. The parents who loves the school so much and loves how everyone comes together was not in attendance. I was extremely disappointed. Dr. Johnson is working very hard to get the school in order and she is off to a great start. Of course, some parents didn't like some of the changes because they think they run the school. Those same parents consider EPA a private school when in fact it is not. It is a public charter school. So far, we have not had any trouble with the teachers. Of course problems will arise, that's all a part of a growing school. Dr. Johnson is a valuable asset to EPA. lm hoping her contract is extended for longer than what it is stated for. I see a great future for EPA. Some of the board members could be more welcoming. I do know they treated the candidates who were pursuing the new principal position very rudely. If they did that imagine how they treat the parents. My only complaint is how some parents feel the need to do whatever they want because their spouse sits on the board or they are friends with certain board members without consequences and that's not fair. Communication could be worked on between staff and parents. I wouldn't want my children anywhere else besides East Point Academy and that's only if they extend Dr. Johnson's contract. If not, more families would leave and that's not a good look. Also, would love to see a more diverse staff. EPA is such a diverse school with its students and that would mean so much.
