There is wonderful communication. I've received amazing feedback from teachers and the school leadership team has reached out periodically to make sure everything is going well. Each child is special and is not just a number. The courses and curriculum are very comprehensive. There are SO many ways to connect with the VAA community, through worship, sports, theater - you name it! We highly recommend this wonderful school!

It's a great school with great teachers. There are so many different types of people and it's so diverse. I wouldn't have gone anywhere else!

South Lakes High School is a public high school for grades 9-12 located in Reston in Fairfax…read moreCounty, VA. They have a great piece of land which allows for ample parking on both sides of the school. The inside of the school was renovated pretty recently, so classrooms, common areas, gymnasiums, etc. are in great shape and have top of the line technology. It also happens to share some land with Langston Middle School which is convenient for the county. The teachers and staff are wonderful. I've had a chance to work with them frequently through my volunteer role with the Relay For Life of Reston. A really unique thing about this school is that they have a huge JROTC program. It allows for the students to get involved with activities outside of the classroom, get mentored, learn leadership/organization skills, become more motivated and have more discipline, and really prepare them for the real world/college. I can't talk highly enough about the JROTC program and the influence it has in these kids lives, especially when they may not be receiving a lot of support at home. I have gotten to know Sargaent Handy and Major Schuler over the years; they are such wonderful role models and I'm so grateful for their service. Shout out to Linda and Susan in the activities office, they're a huge help to us too!

We feel so fortunate to have discovered Masterpiece Academy for our 8th grader. The teachers did an…read moreexcellent job preparing my son; the pace of each class was just right, it was not too overwhelming, and he especially enjoyed the lectures, particularly those by Mr. Chris. I even think he looked forward to his classes with Masterpiece Academy. When it came time to take the actual tests, he found them challenging but manageable. Thanks to the thorough preparation he received, he knew what to expect and how to structure his answers effectively. As a result, he successfully passed the exams for AOS and Thomas Jefferson High School. I highly recommend Masterpiece Academy to anyone looking for quality academic preparation. Special thanks to Miss Krishna and the entire staff for helping our children excel. If I could, I'd give them 500 stars!

Our recent experience with Masterpiece Academy highlighted a lack of experience and clarity in…read moreprogram execution. There was insufficient transparency around time commitment, what the program fees included, and overall expectations, which made planning difficult for families. Communication and coordination were inconsistent, and several processes appeared underdeveloped. Of particular concern was how a decision impacting a child was handled and communicated, which did not demonstrate the level of care, empathy, or age-appropriate judgment expected in a youth program. We hope leadership uses this feedback to improve structure, communication, and clearly define scope, fees, and responsibilities. Families may want to ask detailed questions about program expectations and policies before enrolling.

Second, the school is primarily intended for Muslims, so it is obvious to teach them how to pray correctly and to teach them not to celebrate the holidays of other religions, and this is what public schools do.

I notice that they teach them that Christmas is bad thing, Easter is bad thing ......which I did not like it at all.

Do NOT get fooled about this school. if you want to teach your kids Arabic and Islam there is much better places than here. If you hear about this school just RUN AWAY.............................

This school is an investment in your children that you will truly never regret and will see the benefits of in the years to come.
