    I am extremely pleased with MAS and what it has done for my child. In a world where learning and…read moreteaching is despised my kid is pushed to meet the highest standards. The teacher communication is helpful and timely. She has grown so much at MAS and I am extremely proud of her.

    My child has been attending this school for 3 of her school years. Majority of it being middle…read moreschool. When I had first heard about it I was intrigued by the highly advertised posters coming from this school regarding their education standards, teachers, proficiency, state testing, MAS being "nationally" ranked and #1 in Charter School. I was quite surprised how much they try to sell their school and advertise for such accomplishments. After the first month of my daughter attending there in 5th grade, I received a call stating she had "called 911 on their phone". After receiving this call about what she did I was a bit concerned because my child was NEVER involved in any incidents at her previous school. It turned out to be a "friend" of hers that did it and my child took the blame. I didn't recieve another phone call, until another school year after. This time it was about her "eating Cheetos in class". After that it seemed that between her dad and I, we were receiving calls every other day regarding her and what she was doing, "she is not on topic", "she is braiding her hair", "she's putting on lipgloss", "she is talking to her friends", "she is taking too long in the restroom". The frequency of calling over nothing was starting to be disruptive in our daily lives. At first I did appreciate the contacting but after some of the reasons why they were calling? I'm like "ok, I'll have a talk with her". This was all new to me, especially since my child was never in trouble at her previous school, now her teachers were calling about every little thing, she did and didn't do. The receptionist in the front always had an attitude about her dad and I signing her out. "It has to be before 2:30", "she's at lunch, you're gonna have to wait 30 min till she finishes and walks back to class", etc. Ridiculous, definitely not a traditional school where they use an intercom to communicate for the students. The urgency of time was NEVER there at this school. Then when she would arrive we'd have to wait another 5-10 minutes for them to get her phone. My child was late for majority of her appointments due to me sitting there in the lobby waiting for her. I'm sorry but if my child had an appointment after 2:30. You best believe I will be signing her out! My child played volleyball for a year and the fact that they had scheduled times and days was convenient. But sometimes they wouldn't know till the day of what time their game would be at, who they were playing or even if she would get playing time. That's definitely unacceptable and disorganized. Students are consistently sitting in a room all day, not sure if they even have windows (not from what I've seen in her classrooms over the years). Meanwhile the teachers are switching in and out teaching different subjects. Students are not being taught the basic independency skill to walk to another classroom to learn the subject for middle school or high school, to visit a locker in between passing periods to drop off books or material, or having homework and having books and study material provided to them to take home. Their grading system is very complicated to understand, it's not a traditional A,B,C,D,F grading system. I shouldn't say what needs to improve, I think you all know what should be improved. I think this school over my child's time there, did put her a little behind in learning. I would've moved her sooner if we had the chance! I'm only speaking from our experience!

    I am a former student from this school. My experience at Amy bhiel was not good, even after I left…read morethe school. They are not a college prep school, but they skip many credits required to graduate that other schools require. Additionally, when I moved schools, a lot of the classes that I took at Amy Bhiel didn't count as credits and I had to do a lot more work during my senior year of high school. I also missed out on a lot of high school experiences because they do not have sports, they have extremely limited clubs, and not a lot of non-academic extra-curriculars. The school size was too small, and there were only a small handful of students throughout each class that I had. They did not prepare me or teach me things I needed to know, and I found myself falling behind the academic level most students at other schools were at. There are little to no AP classes and the area the school is located is sketchy and unsafe, especially for teenagers. I would not recommend this school to anybody, and if you do attend Amy Bhiel, I recommend staying for all 4 years of high school because of how badly their classes will screw you over when switching.

    Im a former student. all of the teachers were amazing and so kind but the administration needs ALOT…read moreof work. I was unaware i wasnt supposed to come back with my friends because i wasnt enrolled (even though i wasnt hiding and everyone knew me) i tried getting a visitor pass but couldnt due to not having my id. i only went because i had no ride home and one of my friends was my ride. i went to my friends first period and the teacher knew me and was fine with me there. I was not disruptive or disrespectful in any way. then I got pulled into Hallies office and got told i was trespassing and i tried explaining my situation and i wanted to see if i could get a visitor pass, i was very respectful and she was VERY rude and disrespectful to me, She kicked me out and told me to walk to the public library i had told her i wasnt good with streets because im not familiar with the area and she replied with "Well maybe you should learn". VERY DISRESPECTFUL. Mind you im a MINOR, ALONE, on the streets of central. i walked across the street to look up directions and i got catcalled IMMEDIATELY. THANKFULLY, a security guard from SIMS came up to me and took me into his building. but even he said it was dangerous to be walking alone and he told me not to walk to the library because it would be unsafe. if i did decide to walk to the library im 100% sure something would have happened. They DID NOT care for my saftey AT ALL, reguardless if im a student or not they could have handled it in a better way and atleast made me wait in the office. They put me in danger when i was unaware and i don't tolerate that. besides the administrators the teachers are wonderful, if you want good teachers id recommend this school but for saftey for your child i would NOT recommend this school trust worthy. if its THAT easy to walk in the doors who knows who can just come in.
