Community Reviews
The teachers from this school favorite the smarter, more “popular” kids. They talk to them in class and ignore the rest of the kids. The staff in the counseling and principal positions hide from parents and avoid confrontation. The staff almost always believes teachers over children no matter what,
Posted by a community member on 4/23/2024We have had mixed experiences at Bell. The first few years the school was going through high staff turnover and my child had some very inexperienced and ill-equipped teachers. The classrooms were in constant chaos and minimal learning was happening. It was stressful for my child and efforts to work
Posted by a parent on 3/26/2024My child (now in 4th grade at a different school) attended KG and half of 1st Grade. He developed severe anxiety while at Bell. Three things caused us to leave the school:1. Bullying issue: my son was bullied verbally and physically by a child who was three years older but in the same grade. Notices
Posted by a parent on 9/29/2022Great school. Lots of activities and inventive ways to keep the kids engaged. Great facilities and teachers.
Posted by a parent on 5/21/2021Toxic place after last principal left and took half of the staff with her. Huge turnover. Hypocritical teachers do not teach, just worksheets and downloads and videos from the internet, staff bully the kids! New administrator is ineffective and two-faced, nurse is surprisingly hostile. Very politica

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter has been attending this school since kindergarten and is now in 1st grade, and we’ve had a wonderful experience so far. The teachers are truly amazing and make learning fun and engaging for the kids. Academically, the students learn a great deal and are well ahead of grade level, which we really appreciate.The teachers are also highly supportive and create a very friendly environment where children feel comfortable and encouraged. The school does a great job of making sure kids are challenged while still having fun. In addition, students get to learn Spanish and Japanese, which is fantastic exposure at a young age. The school also offers weekly music and Zumba classes, giving children a great balance of academics and extracurricular activities. We’re very happy to be part of this school community.Parent Review3mo ago - Evergreen Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is currently in 3rd grade at Northlake Academy and has been a student there since kindergarten. My daughter is currently also at Northlake, is in 1st grade, and has been there since Pre-K. Our family has been extremely impressed by Northlake due to its (1) teacher student ratio of 2 teachers for approximately 15 or less students; (2) advanced curriculum in math, reading/writing and science which tends to run a year or two ahead of public schools; (3) supportive, safe and fun environment for learning where our kids feel comfortable to explore ideas; (4) many offered extracurricular activities including dance, piano/music, 2 foreign languages and art. In addition, the school is year round and the tuition includes before and after school care. The price is very reasonable when compared to competitive schools. You get so much for the price. We are very happy here and will continue on through 5th grade knowing that Northlake will provide our kids every resource they need to have a successful scholastic experience and reach their potential. We highly recommend it.Parent Review2y ago
