    It's just the best school. Hands down they've changed a lot in the year 2020!

    Opportunities are pretty nice but the actual school...not so much. In this school, there are some…read moreteachers that make it pretty clear that they don't like working with children which is ironic considering that they work in a school that is soon to be a k-12. Bullying is common in this school and when you bring it to the staffs attention they act like they're going to do something about it but they don't. Same thing happens when a teacher does something bad and you report it. Fights are not very common but recently there was a fight three weeks in a row. Students also get away with literally anything until it is wearing a sweater that covers their school logo. I have witnessed multiple teachers tell a student to not speak their native language because it's an "english speaking country". They also think suffocating someone with detentions and CSIs will magically change their actions or behavior. The students are either rude or racist with a 6% of students actually being good and the same thing goes for staff members. Students get away with bullying, intercourse, drugs, fights, sexting, and overall disrespect. There was also an instance where two students were going to the office to get a menstrual product with permission from their teacher who at the moment did not have a pass. They were stopped by a security guard telling them that they needed a pass and after explaining to the security guard that they needed the product, they were still ordered to get a hall pass (this took place immediately after the bell rung and everyone was moving to their next class so there was no need to have a hall pass in the first place). The art magnets are pretty good but some perform poorly (Entertainment technology). One of the Dance magnet's old teacher was good at showing the art within dance and don't get me wrong, the new one is good too but when the new dance teacher stepped in, most dances directed by that teacher have the dancers displaying inappropriate behavior. The school itself has pretty nice natural and artistic elements that make it visually satisfying but this is all true if you ignore the entire section of the school that has been blocked off because the school is falling apart. Also, sometimes the classrooms stink because there is literal mold growing in the vents. The bathrooms are fine and there is a handful of stalls that have no locks. There is also a bathroom littered with mosquitoes. This is overall a mediocre school when it comes to the arts but when it comes to the learning environment and the people around it, it fails to meet the high expectations that this school claims to meet

    The food gave me a stomach bug. Most teachers in this school grade really unorganized. Say if you…read moreget an overall "B" in their class, your conduct grade would drop down from a 1 to a 2, and that's not how you grade. Like that's what effort grades are for... HELLO! Other than that, the school air is very suffocating, mold in the air conditioning triggers my allergies just as bad as when allergy season starts. Also, the staff worries about the wrong things. For example, why are you worrying about me in the halls without a pass when the teacher doesn't provide one, when there's other children vaping in the bathroom. It's very obvious too, open your eyes please and acknowledge the actual problems here. Other than that, it's an okay school. Thank you for your time!

    Six weeks later, I can finally write this review…read more Woohoo! For those not aware, my latest endeavor was signing up for a six-week pottery course with one of my best friends who also happens to be my work husband. What motivated this endeavor? I am a bored and crazy soul. That, and admittedly, this was on my bucket list for years. You see, my mother used to do ceramics and she would never stop talking about how I needed to try it as well. Turns out that while my mother had talent for pottery, I am abysmal at it. The only real competition I have is my dear friend. We cannot seem to decide whose pottery is worse. Semantics aside, the Ceramic League of Miami can be located in the village of Pinecrest. It essentially is an open-spaced garage full of pottery wheels, bookshelves, and clay galore. They have an area for parking, and on the off chance it's packed, there's plenty of businesses around where you can park. Everything in this area is pretty relaxed. Classes can either be daytime or nighttime Monday through Saturday. We signed up for the 2:30 PM Saturday class for the pottery wheel and soda kiln with James. The signing up process was relatively simple. We did everything online. When we began the class, we were given the option of purchasing a tool set. You needed to bring exact change for this. $14 to be specific. If you didn't get this for whatever reason (usually the school running out of them), you could share with the instructor and/or other students. This is what ended up happening to me. This six-week pottery course cost $155 and it included two and a half hours of instruction every Saturday, as well as what I refer to as that horribly heavy 20+ lb of clay bag. The class is over and I have leftover clay. What the heck am I supposed to do with it? I have clay in places I never thought I would. Cough; I am referencing my box of art supplies in my car. Yes, I can effectively now say I've become an artist. If you become a member of this non-profit organization, the class will cost you $145 instead. Overall, I thought the prices fair for what we did. We received a lot of personal instruction and got to get our hands down and dirty. Unfortunately the movie Ghost sets up unrealistic expectations when it comes to clay. Noting that, if you go in with an open mind, this is a blast; a frustrating blast but a blast nevertheless. I found James to be an efficient and kind instructor. I just wish there had been more organization on his part. We never really got to mark our pieces properly, but oh well. I would probably do this again in the future. For now though, this girl is off to her next venture: aerial yoga!

I learned so much in every single class I took. In university at USF I took a semester of ballet and the teacher complimented my technique as being the best one in the class, all thanks to the wonderful education I received at academy of arts. Now in 2025 my 3 year old daughter is taking classes and is enjoying every class. My mother, daughter and I recently went to the Christmas show and we were so proud to experience the show. It was such a great show, still professional and beautiful. 13 years later and Academy of Arts is still producing wonderful dancers. I highly recommend this studio to all dancers and artists who are eager to learn and perfect their craft.

This is a full dance school that offers: Ballet, Pointe, Jazz, Pas De Deux, Lyrical, Tap, Hip-Hop, Flamenco, Modern Dance, Contemporary, Musical Theatre, Drama, Piano, Guitar, Violin, and Voice. The faculty is certified and have led professional careers in their respective areas of creative expertise. They begin laying a foundation from the preschool years all the way to young adulthood. And they have both female and male students. They also offer an AfterSchool program and work your child's classes at a mutually suitable schedule. The cost of the classes is comparable to other dance academies. I have enjoyed closely watching the development in my niece, as well as in many of her close friends. I also look forward to their professionally-mounted recitals every year.
