Don't even make him mad cause he yelled loudly when someone cursed, but overall he's a pretty sweet dude idk if they are still gonna be here for the old 6th graders that are going to 7th grade but who knows but i will say that the breakfast they serve are so good but if your allergic, I feel bad cause wydm I can't eat bread but uhhh anyways, 4/10 from my experience but I'll do 6/10 cause I made a lot of friends there that peak my interests so ye

I disagree with the only other person who reviewed this school. Though as we all know, these are…read moreour opinions so the only way to know better than what we state, is to look into it for yourself. This is a great school, the principle (Mrs. French) is AMAZING-knows most all of the students by name, even the 6th graders. My child is a good girl-her average yearly GPA is a 3.9. I think that being separated from boys is a great idea because the girls can focus on their studies rather than on the boys (don't act like you can't relate, or did you forget how it is to be a teen with raging hormones?). In my opinion, they need to create an all girls high school as well-but the county won't, nor those parents who think their 2 cents is needed (if you don't support single gender schools and have no intentions of enrolling your child in one-keep your opinion to yourself-this obviously doesn't apply to you and we don't need your voice heard in regards to this matter). At any rate, the area does kinda suck but having a magnet school in the area is just a tactic to bring/clean up the surrounding neighborhood, or so I assume. The school is old, obviously not the employees faults but not filthy. I believe the maintenance/cleaning crew has won an award for 2 yrs in a row now for their team/performance. The curriculum is challenging-but maybe that's because my daughter is in all advanced courses-yes, every last one (yes-I am a proud mother, but I am sure you get that by all I've said thus far). I have no complaints of the staff. The teachers communicate well, and the office staff are courteous. The HOST program is great and the HOST staff...well I couldn't ask for better. My daughter has been on the school's soccer team and also in band and I'll be adding Golf Academy to the list for this upcoming school year. Overall, this has been an excellent experience. I drive 20 mins. out of my way (taking Expressway of course, and tack on another 15 mins. to get to my job), but it is worth it to me. We fully intend on finishing out her middle school experience at Ferrell. My daughter loves the school and if she loves it, then I love it too. But a lot of the girls love the school and make good grades (of course not all)-so that should speak for something! Oh-and they do have school dances where the boys from the all boys prep school (Franklin I believe) come to attend. The girls also play their sports right before the all boys prep so there's a chance to mingle there for a few...and also in the summer HOST program, it is co-ed. So see? Not JUST all girls-they so get some boy interaction, it's just not on a daily which is fine by me! Besides, most girls in this age group would rather be around girls...this is the age range where they start to blossom. Oh, this is an Apple certified school, so each girl is assigned an iPad to carry throughout the day. Check it out-only you can decide what you believe is best for your daughter. I only see benefits for mine. This is an A rated school. It is new, I believe only 3 yrs old, but trust me, your child can reap more benefits by attending this school than a co-ed or traditional school. Go see for yourself :) Oh, and this review is not up for debate. I'm not interested in hearing the confrontational parent who wants to argue single gender schools, this is just my review on my daughters school, that we so love.

They follow a classical educational model developed by the Greeks and Romans that teaches students to think and apply, not just memorize or pass tests. My daughter has been going to Paideia (which means education or learning in Latin) for 3 years and has had so many leadership and solid educational experiences that I wouldn't send her anywhere else. The curriculum is challenging and the faculty is requiring but very loving and dedicated to your children's wholistic growth.

The teachers who made it great are all gone, and with them went the school spirit. There are no legitimate sports, as there are so few upper school kids, they have to incorporate lower school, even for basketball and football, where they are grossly undersized. Probably most telling is the number of board members, including board presidents, who pulled their kids and left the school. If you are looking for a protected Christ-centered environment, you would be more likely to encounter Him in public school unless you want your child to learn legalism. Even their website testimonials no longer have their kids enrolled.

Charter schools operating as for-profit real estate schemes are draining money meant for students…read moreand teachers. Florida, it's time to pay attention. A recent analysis of Education Management Organizations (EMOs) operating in Florida uncovered a striking example: a charter firm and its construction partner sold two newly built schools to their affiliated real estate partner -- one for just $1, the other for $10. Once the real estate firm took over the leases, it raised the rent on the school that sold for $1 all the way up to $1,325,666 per year. That's public education money -- money meant for classrooms, teachers, and students -- flowing straight into a related company's pocket through an inflated lease. Florida taxpayers deserve to know where their school dollars are actually going.

We attended middle school here and that lack of administrative support to the teachers is a…read moreproblem. We had many teachers leave during the year, there was limited opportunities for art and No music programs for middle school. I volunteered here for a 6th school dance, and witnessed the lack of disrespect and damages toward school property. The teachers allowed music to be streamed via laptop and it even included explicit lyrics. I spent most of the night chasing kids to stop them from breaking glow sticks to flock the neon gel on themselves or school property. Trying to leave the venue aka cafeteria to explore classrooms above. This school has great security to keep people, parents out but lacks insight on properly supporting discipline procedures within their own staffing. There is athletics in the form of basketball and soccer as well as cheerleading. Those departments are not could not offer a regular words and celebrations or recognition at the end of the season unless a parent rally's to create a board. Or privately funded by parents. In middle school the children were instructed to read from an online program that was limited in content. No actual books were encouraged. And that may be teacher discretion. Many parents aren't as involved here since there is a monopoly of the same parents signing up for things. Many working parents do not get a fair opportunity to volunteer, unless planned months in advance or there is some consideration toward voting for times to release sign ups hour. A lot of the happy reviews reflect elementary experiences. Since those kids aren't as much of a concern and have years for Waterset charter to fix or mold those curriculums.
