The staff is just fabulous! Friendly and helpful! I couldn't ask for better!

I am posting to express my absolute disgust and outrage regarding the unprofessional and frankly…read moreappalling behavior of Principal Darryl Owen's in handling my request for a refund of $250 for my child's basketball fees. He promised me that I would receive the refund within 24 hours, but it has been two weeks, and I have not received any funds. Today he told me he could only refund $80. Despite my child never participating in a single game, Principal Darryl Owens has repeatedly refused to process a refund that is rightfully owed to me. His dismissive, disrespectful, and obstinate attitude during our interactions has been nothing short of shocking. When I attempted to resolve this matter I asked him to contact the superintendent Lawrence Swoope, M.Ed. he refused to contact him. I also called the police. He informed them that he would provide a full refund and then return and told me that I would not receive any compensation from him, and the superintendent would handle the matter.

My oldest dtr did wonders here and got scholarships to university so there was not really a lot to pay out of pocket. My middle dtr did not thrive here because she didn't want like school as much and didn't want to go to university. She went on to trade school. She is going well also. In the end, to each their own. They are liberal arts catholic school. Lots of extra circular but the sports teams are not state ranked and if that is a concern go elsewhere. It wasn't for us. I would enroll my dtr here again for sure.

I can't really tell you much about this school since I'm a guy but I've heard a lot from my friends…read moreand I think I can shed more light on the place than some 7th grade lesbian who uses words like, 'h***hole.' This is a school for smart kids who take their education seriously. They want to go to elite schools when they graduate and are willing to forego a lot of the high school fun to get a real education. This is the kind of place where there are no hall passes and attendance is a given. There aren't any bells ringing and the class sizes are small. Everyone does their homework because it matters. The school is surprisingly liberal for a Catholic school. They focus a lot on things like social justice and community service. Kids wore their Obama buttons to class and worked for progressive candidates. It is not a bad place. Don't listen to some Atlanta wobbly-puss who flunked out in the 7th grade and has carried a chip on her shoulder all the way to some grad school. She made out with some teacher's daughter? Are you kidding me? The Elms isn't the typical Catholic school just because somebody gave her a bad grade 15 years ago.

I enrolled my son to attend this online school. After a couple of days I changed my mind and…read moreemailed them immediately to let them know. I was told no problem but a laptop had been mailed and to just return it. Okay no problem right! WRONG!! The laptop arrived but I refused the delivery. The laptop was returned on August 11, 2026 at exactly 2:45pm. A signature was required. They've been calling, texting and emailing me several times a day regarding the laptop. I explained the laptop was returned and sent screenshots of the return from the UPS website. It has gotten so bad that I've blocked them but they continue to call from different numbers. I called in last week and it was verified they've received the laptop but he's not sure why I'm still receiving any type of communication. I ended up filing a complaint with The BBB and my States Attorney General Office. At this point it's harassment and I'm seriously considering hiring an attorney. I seriously wonder how many other people they've done this to!! I noticed that they turned off all comments on Google. I'd love to leave them an honest review of my experience! I'm so happy I decided to not allow my child to attend this school!

On march 11th I got an email saying he was doing really good (126% attendance and all A's and B's) and then on the 15th I got a withdrawal letter. So I pulled all three out. They won't get a dime for my kids being there. There was ZERO communication about "missing" hours before the intervention btw. My kids are on a strict schedule so how is it his fault the teachers don't approve it? I already lawyered up I have proof he logged 90% of his missing time.
