This school was excellent from kindergarten to 5th grade graduation. The teachers were so easily contacted and approachable. Every teacher kept in weekly personal communication with me to improve my son's education.

I was distraught to see Mrs Middleton leave and thought the school may go downhill, but Mrs Conner proved me wrong.
I couldn't possibly recommend this school more than I do.
The drama teacher is so fantastic that my son got into SOA. Your child will be lucky to go to ARCAE.

Wonderful art focused school. The students are definitely the most important asset.

So far I'm liking the program. The entire office staff is rude including the vice principal. It's not a very pleasant experience having to visit. My child's teacher is really nice, so I'm glad about that.

My school is Ashley river creative arts it was the best school ever even though I'm moving on to a new school. But I loved that school they provide extracarricular activities to help you connect with the arts. It is an artistic public school where you are allowed to shine through your talent you can definitely learn something new there I assure you because they have field trips like Barrier Islamd and a trip to WASHINGTON DC! I'm sure everybody who gets enrolled there will surely love it I'm heading on to 6th grade but I cried when I left because I miss ARCAE so much (Ashley river creative arts) I miss my elementary school and I'm pretty sure everyone else would too!

The school is wonderful. The arts portion allows for so many extras, ballet, drams, Suzuki violin, etc. But they're also great academically. RECOMMEND--not your average 'public' school.
