Even though we've been doing Virtual School everyone's in the school has been helpful with my son's learning. They made sure that every educational met as the best ability. I think this has been a great School in the atmosphere is peaceful and happy an overall I believe is it's a great learning for the children

My daughter had an experience with bully, and instead of listening to the he say, she say of children; they fully investigated and were able to resolve the issue before even calling me. The only reason i was called was to be informed of the experience she had.

I would say it is amazing! And to think i went to school with someone of the teachers that teach my daughter now. It is quite the learning experience.

Where do I begin? My first year with the school. First week, my child's book sack was stolen and worn to school the next day by another student. When it was addressed with the office, the front office staff told me that it is nothing that they could do. My child's name is on her book sack and they still said it was nothing that they could do. They didn't talk to the child or the parent of the child. HORRIBLE! Attitude is real rude. I purchased 120 pencils (per school's request) and my child was told that she could not bring home a pencil for her school work. NEGATIVE. The security is HORRIBLE. Anyone can just walk up and ask for your child and they will let them go with them. I would NEVER recommend this school to anyone that cares about their child. No organization at all!!! I am so disappointed; I don't like schools that are not diverse!

NO NO NO NO NO, This has been going on since my niece and son went here and that was over 3 years ago. There needs to be a revamp of the school the buddy system is very present. Some of the staff are afraid of the parents and therefore they don't get reprimanded

My child doesn't have issues with learning so I can't truly speak on this topic.
Posted: March 2, 2017
The leaders can't lead. No one is ever on the same page. The statement is always "let me get back to you on that" but no ever gets back to you. or when they do they say it was nothing. The why did you contact me before doing true research
Posted: March 2, 2017
The most of the staff don't have strong character so how can they instill this in the children?
Posted: March 2, 2017
Very few are on top of things. As I said previously they are too busy trying to be the "cool" teacher verses teaching.
Posted: March 2, 2017
I disagree because in the beginning they inform you that homework will be given everyday. However once the school year begins and they change teachers about 12 times in one school year. Homework is rarely given. How can I stay on top of my child when the teachers don't know.
Posted: March 2, 2017
How can the staff expect the children to behave accordingly when they don't. I left all of my contact information with my daughter's teachers and still don't receive updates however they can call me while I am at work about something that another student Is doing my daughter instead of reprimanding the correct student. The teachers are trying to hard to be cool and not educating the children.

The staff is very unprofessional, they are sitting right there and they don't buzz you in right away. The staff does not greet you when you enter, they are too busy holding conversations and after they finish they just look at you as if they are asking what do you want. They let you know about events at the last minute, which doesn't give you enough time to a adjust your schedule to attend the event.

Frankly to put it, I would not recommend anyone who wants a good education and safe environment for their child to attend Inspire Charter Academy. Most of the staff is very unprofessional and does not follow through with tasks. So far I've seen that their learning objectives are a joke. The name of the school and uniform are just an illusion to get children to attend. I'm moving my child to another school. I'm really disappointed because I thought that by moving my child here was a good choice, but unfortunately I was very wrong. Please stay far away from this school as possible. This school only works for those whom live within a 30 mile radius of it.

Since my children been attending Inspire Charter Academy they have been outstanding in grades and knowledgeable of their classwork and next level grades. This school is highly recommended.
