This school used to be the top rated school in TSD. However, the principal Amy Bemis is driving it…read moreinto the ground. After she was hired, half of the staff left. I decided to keep my son enrolled after a teacher friend said he should be fine. That was a mistake. A student who bullied my son for three years threatened my son's life and Amy decided it was appropriate to offer my son one solution - mediation. This was after I informed her of the bullying for three year, which she magically "forgot." She thought it was appropriate that after someone threatens to kill my son to try to teach him "it's okay, let's work it out." When I brought up issues, she'd tell me "I didn't bring them up right after they happened so she won't do anything" in front of her boss, who was kind enough to agree that parents can bring up issues when they feel it's appropriate. If you do enroll your child here, Amy forgets everything, so I strongly recommend you keep an email record as proof. On top of that, when I brought my minority husband in to discuss issues, Amy gave him the nastiest looks which we both witnessed but kept quiet about. When bringing up these issues to the district, they didn't care. This experience was so bad for my family we're now leaving the public education realm and will be going to a charter school.

I came here to get a phone number and saw a 1 star review moving from Norfolk, VA and California to…read moreAZ I can tell you that this school is not a 1 star. Is it a solid 5 I would say, so here's why: 1.Mandatory parent participation and volunteer hours(forces you to be more involved in the school) 2. A+ rated ( better than not being rated right?) 3. Activities at school during the school year like a Fun Run to raise money, Water day where there is outside stations and parent volunteers, Trunk or treat hosted by the staff and parents with a DJ and food Trucks, In Class plays where parents could come watch and record (pre-covid) 4. Teachers like Mrs.Stevenson and Mrs.Lombardi kind hearted caring and eager to teach. Are there some things I would change yes, any school has things that need to be improved but overall this is a great school if public school is the route you take

We highly value education. My wife has a PhD and I am an attorney. We spent a significant amount of…read moretime deciding on the school to send our children, now 8 (second grade) and 10 years old (fifth grade). Horizon Honors is the perfect fit. What attracted us two key features: (1) Horizon's student-to-teach ratio, and (2) the fact that students are assessed and taught at their level. An advanced Kindergartener can be in first or second grade math or reading, etc. Similarly, students needing more help are engaged and taught at the right level of challenge. Kindergarten classrooms are 25-30 students with a teacher and adult assistant teacher yielding teacher-to-student ratios of 13-15. In grades 1-6, students are in mixed-aged classrooms (again, taking into account the challenge needed for each student), with a class size of 55-60 led by 3 adults-two teachers and an adult assistant teacher, yielding a ratio of 18-20. These numbers are great. Beyond the classroom, we appreciate the lunch options. Food is catered from places like Pei Wei, Chick-fil-A, Panda Express, Boston Market and Streets of NY Pizza, making it much better than cafeteria-level food. While the price can be more than a cafeteria, the providers donate a share of proceeds back to the school, which is a win-win. We have also found that involvement opportunities are larger and more diverse than other schools - numerous sports, clubs, and activities are available to K-6 students. Our kids have been involved in after school clubs including Melody Makers, Code Bots, Rising Stars, Save the Earth, Showbiz, Lego Club, Art Club, and our fifth grader was selected to one of the middle school sports teams that allows 5th graders to tryout.

I was actually told " we don't like to do anything until 3rd grade." WTH. They also wrote a behavior plan after a meeting held without me that said, " No speech help will be given at this time, hopefully a change in behavior will help with articulation and anunciation." Moral of the story, if you might bring down the test scores don't bother with this school. By the way my daughter now has speech therapy, a dyslexia diagnosis and is doing great at a Mesa public school.

Counselors worked with him and encouraged and guided him all the way. The younger is in 10th grade and every year so far has been a positive experience for him as well. One is a scholar the other not so much, but both of them have benefited from their experiences at imagine and now prep. I went to the high school orientation and was very impressed with their goals and plans for the students. Just can't say enough about positive results they have gotten and continue to get with two very different children. I love the small classes and attention children receive both scholastic and emotionally. Leadership is encouraged but the average child is also encouraged to be the best they can be socially and scholastically.

Imagine Prep Superstition is a horrible school if you expect them to protect your children. My…read moredaughter started there this past school year and was sexually assaulted well per the law because the boy did not go into her pants just assault. A boy at the school in her same grade but they had different classes came up to her at lunch and told her "let me see your dick" and proceeded to touch her in her vagina area with her clothes on. She was in shock and embarrassed she quickly moved away. She called me and was crying hysterically where I couldn't even understand her. She got home and explained what had happened. That night I emailed the principal which of course I received no response. The next morning my husband, my daughter and I went to the school to speak with someone to report this and see what they were going to go about this. The assistant principal told us she was going to investigate and that they had zero tolerance for this behavior and that she would call me back later that day, she promised that if we left our daughter there she would be safe and this kid would stay away from her. Later that day she called me back and stated that the students that she spoke with did not see anything which she did not even get statements from all students which my daughter said were there and on the video you couldn't see anything as well BUT she had a copy made for the police if I wished to proceed with that route. She had found out during her investigation that a lot of their students there were hitting each other in their private areas. It was a game that the students were playing. I explained that's not a game my child would partake in, we have taught her way better then that. She said she's not saying that was the case and that she's not saying what happened to my daughter didn't happen but she has no evidence to proceed with this supposed zero tolerance that she told me about. She then stated that she spoke with all of the students and told them if this happens they will be suspended. I'm on the phone thinking BUT I THOUGHT YOU HAD ZERO TOLERANCE? Now this doesn't make sense. My husband, oldest daughter and daughter that this happened to went to the Apache Junction police department filed a police report # 210830010. While they were there the police officer stated that have other accusations from that school. I was then contacted by a detective 4 days later and the school now told him that they no longer have the video. I told the detective, I was told they had a copy for the police and now it's gone. I'm sorry but that seems too suspicious. Now it has turned into a he said, she said situation so of course no charges can be filed. The detective apologized for not being able to do anything and said if any witnesses will step forward he will proceed. I have since pulled my daughter from this school and enrolled her into another school, because I'm sorry they must have things going on there that they're trying to cover up and my daughter will not be hurt again. I would like to warn others, talk to your children and let them know it is not ok! They need to speak up and make people/schools held accountable for their actions. Also, I hope this story is shared so this school will start holding themselves to a better standard and protect the child that they are supposed to!
