Though it is a small school, the French American International School of Boca Raton allows for a lower student to teacher ratio which is a gift. My eldest child was in the gifted and talented program in her previous school, and this small teacher to student ratio has afforded the teachers to individualize and differentiate the curriculum to meet her individual needs. She is challenged, motivated and HAPPY. My middle child has blossomed at FAIS. She has gained more confidence as she is asking more questions and is engaged in group activities because of the more one on one time she receives at FAIS. She also takes greater pride in her work completion and strives to excel each and every day. She has also formed some wonderful friendships at the school as the children at this school are kind and open-minded.I can honestly state that all of the teachers are passionate about teaching. The teachers are approachable and so accommodating to students and families. My children and I feel cared for. FAIS recently acquired International Baccalaureate (IB) accreditation. The IB coordinator is fantastic and this accreditation is just another bonus. It encourages such a well-rounded education! As my eldest child says "FAIS is a gem of a school" and I could not agree more! My eldest is taking standardized exams for middle school admissions placements (24-25 school year). I have received her multiple scores and her percentiles have actually moved up since last year across all academic areas. This just validates how excellent the academics are at FAIS! My three children, husband and I cannot express how grateful we are to have found this wonderful school!

I have yet to meet any faculty or staff that are not truly committed to the students and the community. For a relatively small school, the access to quality arts, music, sports, theater and other extra curriculars is impressive. Best of all, Grandview has a true sense of community, from students and teachers to families and staff. Students regularly interact across grade levels (in class and out), and regular community events allow everyone to be involved.

You can thank your employee Kenneth Fry for this one star review…read more You would think that employees at this school should be those who would set an example for the children, but Ken Fry is a bully and a sorry excuse for a human being. Tonight I witnessed Ken Fry berate a food truck worker for accidentally overcharging his credit card... something like accidentally punching in $120.00 instead of $12.00.... an innocent mistake. He had actually even signed off on it without noticing ... but She immediately noticed the error and correcting the issue, and issuing a full refund and going as far as giving him the food for free for the trouble. Ken Fry proceeded to berate the girl accusing her of theft and creating a huge issue, after she brought it to his attention and corrected it .... and he still treated her like absolute crap in front of a huge crowd of people. I was completely appalled and disgusted by his completely inappropriate and senseless infantile behavior. Quite frankly, Ken Fry is a disgusting excuse for a human being. If this is the example of people you employ at this school, i feel sorry for your institution and the children who go to school here. Perhaps you should reconsider the type of people you employ or parents should reconsider sending their children here

I actually transferred here from a public school in Pennsylvania, but I was welcomed right away as family. I was actually lucky because within a month of starting school, most of my grade took a two month high school experience in Israel, so I really got to bond with them there. Over the course of my two years at Donna Klein, we went to Israel twice, once on the Alexander Muss High School in Israel Program, the other on the March of the Living. I can say that the school pushing these trips made for some of the most important experiences of my life. My whole grade at the time of graduation was 20 students, which means I was really able to get to know all of them very well. Socially, you'd think that having less students wouldn't be a good thing, but it really does add a level of closeness to the school. You not only bond with you class, but all the other classes and students in the school. They did offer a lot of athletics, but not many clubs to join. Nevertheless, most of the social experiences at Donna Klein are very beneficial and prepare you for whatever experiences you have after school. On the education front, I was very pleased with all aspects of it. Most of the courses were the standard courses (math, science, history, English), but also they had plenty of AP and honors courses as well. Class sizes were very small, which had the great benefit of having lots of attention and care. I think my biggest class was maybe 12 kids, and that was a huge class for there. Donna Klein offered a college advisor to help all of us prepare for college. I can't say she was the best college advisor, but because the school size was so small, she met with each one of us on a regular basis, which was always nice to have the extra attention. They also offered a good series of electives, which was nice to be able to choose at least one class on our own. In terms of religion, we basically had a session in the morning where you could choose between a more religious or secular daven to attend, maybe a total of 5 choices. We also had a Judaic studies class, and a hebrew class. I thought it was a very healthy amount of Judaism for the school, and allowed you to choose whatever denomination suited you best. Most of the faculty and staff were extremely nice, friendly, and helpful. Because the school is so small, you really get to know them as mentors beyond just teachers and staff, so it is always nice to have people who really do care. Obviously, some were better than others, but all of them you shared a lot of time with and got to know. Without naming anyone particularly, some of their upper management are some of the the worst people I have ever encountered in my entire life. There is more politics in administrators offices than in the United States Congress, and that is putting it lightly. People on top only care about themselves and advancing their own agendas, not helping any of the students or faculty in anyway. These people were so detached I don't think they even knew the names of students in the school, and were talking a school of less than 100 kids that they are the head of! Part of being in a close knit community like Donna Klein are the advantages of everyone having special attention, and these administrators have none of it. They don't listen to anything logical and just want to serve what is best and easiest for them while making the most money possible. One side of me wants to give Donna Klein a one-star because yes, the head of school and upper administration were that bad and in that way, I was disgusted to have given them a dime, but I choose to remember the good parts of Donna Klein. My advice to parents and students would be to at all costs avoid the people who run the school at the administrative levels and just stick to the faculty and staff. Unless it benefits the bottom line for the school the head of school won't help you, and may even go out of her way to hurt you. The price of going to school here is also not cheap, and most likely going up in the future. I cannot speak to current facilities, but I can say that the private school atmosphere is one I have to highly recommend, it is worth the money. When I went to school at Donna Klein, our whole school was about 84 students total (9th - 12th), and the physical location was in a trailer. I know that they have now moved into the actual JCC area, which I've seen and is very good. Either way, the key factor at Donna Klein is community. Because it is a small school, you are able to get special attention in terms of education, and have a close group of friends. Transferring into a new school can be tough, but Donna Klein made not only the transition easy, but into a wonderful experience. I cannot recommend Donna Klein Jewish Academy highly enough.

From what's up, photos, videos and great communication between me (the mother) and Mrs Claudia, the school's owner, principal, the only licensed teacher, coordinator of 45 children with 3 helpers. Until suddenly things started and got weird. My daughter hit her head and came home with a bump on her forehead and I was not even notified. She said she was moving and doesn't know what happened. After I called and asked for an explanation, the next day I was forced to sign a document releasing the school of such responsibility. Several other problems happened and Mrs. Claudia abstained at all times. My daughter returned home with rash and dirty panties. I asked why. No explanation. sometimes her food came back untouched and sometimes with ants. I questioned. No explanation. From 9 to 2:30 without eating anything, and no one pay attention on that? She didn't answer anymore. I sent text to request a meeting in person and she said she had no time because her priority is to teach. She read my what's up messages and didn't answer me anymore. Until I went to school and questioned all that. She said if i have an emergency, I should call school, but my communication was always by text. I paid fee of $195, to reserve a space for Vpk because she charges it months in advance. I gave up on leaving my daughter another year over there because these problems were already unsustainable and even knowing that I was going to lose the fee, I asked her for the application paper back and she said she had already applied it to the government. I called Vpk and they denied this information. And so once again I asked for the application paper and she told me to apply again and print another one because she had already sent the application. It was when I said I had called there and confirmed that there was no upload on my daughter's behalf. Then she decided to give me back the paper. The last day of the school, she didn't even go outside to deliver the children and say goodbye, not even for an act of education. In addition, I was no longer satisfied with the cleanliness of the school, because sometimes I would go with my daughter to the bathroom In addition, I was no longer satisfied with the cleanliness of the school, bathroom mainly. Some mothers also had problems and took their children out of there. I hope I helped you make a better choice

They couldve paid fr the whole "party" with only my 20 alone yet collected money from so many kids and kept it for themselves. Ive seen what good schools are like and this is NOT it. They kept our 20 for their pockets and the party was total garbage.this happened multiple times. They NEVER communicated my sons progress. I was so frustrated about how terrible the school was. Plus he was supposed to be in the free 3 hour vpk but due to an error on their part was placed in the program we had to pay for. After complaining about this they told me all the free spots were taken and it was too bad. They are crooks and the school is a scam! I couldnt wait to pull him from there to share this review.
