Keys Academy - Charlottesville

The TA's (teaching assistants) nurses office, cafeteria staff and even janitorial truly care about the kids but the teacher and the administration are absolutely terrible in dealing with the students. As you can see by the fact that the school is performing in the bottom 20% in the state and the bottom 15% in the country. Spending 20K per student and getting these results should have parents with pitchforks showing up at the school board but the school board and the supervisors just let half of the schools in this county be dumpsters while the rich kids in the Crozet area, like Brownsville and and at Western Albemarle High School get the Taj Mahal schools my kids are bused from way south to go to this hellhole of a school. (Nice facilities, equipment and furniture, do not make up for incompetent staff.

Both of our children went to Johnson Elementary School. The community there is wonderful, the teachers are caring and excellent, the culture is supportive and kind. I had many friends who sent their kids to private schools, and I believe my children received a better education at Johnson Elementary than they would have at any area private school. Wonderful, Wonderful school!

I went there from 1st to 4th (2013- 2017) and it was so amazing and all of the teachers were so friendly and kind. It was overall just a fantastic experience for me and all of my friends. I would tell everyone I know to out their kids at Jackson-via any day of the week. It truly is a great school.

We were part of the ISC community for two years. One of our daughters completed two years in the preschool program and the other completed K and 1st grade. ISC really challenged my daughters to grow academically and I am so grateful for this school. We have now moved out of state and miss ISC.

Our children have thrived and are thriving at Covenant. We are grateful for their partnership in educating our children.

Read all of the other one star reviews of this place. I couldn’t agree more. In all my years here, I didn’t learn a single thing. All of the clubs are useless, along with the teachers. There is no diversity and there is a clear divide between the minority kids and the white Americans. The school is very cliquey and hard to find friends as it is very small. So many classmates throughout high school left to go to public school because of how much they hated it here. Do your research and don’t send your kid here. It is a waste of time and money!
