Bottom line: Exceptional Pre-K through 8th grade education/environment…read more First off... - Ha! - My wife's review of Cornerstone got filtered out by the Yelp algorithm! (not to worry, you can still see it in the "Not Recommended" section) - heehee!!! - I'll bet I know why: 1. She likely doesn't post "enough" reviews (she would disagree), and so there's that. 2. I've heard that any review that starts off with something absolute like "Best X in the City" is going to get filtered out. Well, the real bottom-line is that everything in my wife's "not recommended" review is absolutely correct. Cornerstone Learning Community (CLC) offers a top-tier education for students pre-K through 8th grade. Cornerstone offers a smaller pupil-to-teacher ratio which helps give greater individualized attention when needed. The Cornerstone website itself does the best job of self-characterizing. As parents, we are very pleased with the results we see and are motivated to be involved in the school's future.

In a few short weeks my son has acquired learning and motor skills I've not seen from him before. They push him to the limit every day with care and with the purpose of educating him.

I was on the waiting list to begin at Scottsdale this summer. The last email I received from them…read moresaid hopefully I could start my baby in mid August and that they would keep me updated. I emailed them recently to check in, and they then told me it would be January instead. Apparently current families can "skip the line" and put in their new babies ahead of people on the waiting list. I had chosen them over others and needed to have a place for my baby this summer, which I thought I had. Very unprofessional to find out they wanted me to wait an additional 6 months and that others got to skip me in line. I wouldn't waste my time with them.

This is a wonderful school. I have experienced the worst of the worst at Kate Sullivan elementary,…read morea public school in Leon County. The blessings of Community Leadership Academy (CLA) cannot be outdone. It is worth the investment into my child, absolutely. I'm a single parent on a tight budget but thankfully Florida offers the SUFS scholarship that helps me. This is a Christian school! God is in the midst! The pre elementary and elementary students at this school have morning worship. Older kids have chapel. It gets the kids settled and in a good mind state. Then as part of their curriculum they learn Bible verses and practice what they learn! They wear uniforms which makes it fun for kids that like to match others. There is a little of variety with the shirt, bottom type, and socks so we have fun mixing that up. It is never boring. Some teachers play music in their classes. We love that. I say "we" because I get to go into the class every month at least once, and help the teacher. "Parent partner hours" are encouraged and it is truly my favorite part about this school. Being involved is so important. The blessing of working together with my child's teachers and peers cannot be understated. I also get to be friends with the parents in the classroom group chat. Not all parent's participate but I try not to let it get me down. It could be so much worse! You could not ever learn another parent's name like at Kate Sullivan. In regards to education, it is pretty good quality curriculum and they read really good books. I enjoy immensely my child's workload and always take part. Special area schedules are awesome: there is theater, music, PE, art, and more. It's great to have the variety. Recess every day and eating lunch in the classroom is so nice. Huge lunchrooms at public schools are chaos my child cannot handle. Kate Sullivan teachers don't actually go to lunch or recess with their kids and that is disappointing. The kids at that school are out of control. More than half of them cuss, swear, bicker, and bully and the teachers/admin do nothing. My child felt lost and forsaken at that public school, came home crying because they have no regard for innocence or sweetness there. CLA values innocence and sweetness and the staff actually care for the children. Kate Sullivan allowed the scholastic book fair to show a video trailer of a book about murder and showed blood!! It was disgusting and evil! That would never happen at CLA! PE at that public school was totally boring and a waste, as well. Physical Education at CLA is top notch, with the best indoor gym to play in. New games and sports are played all the time. They are learning wiffle ball right now! There is lots of fun to be had in between studies and it is Christ centered fun. Don't ever change CLA! Putting Christ and His children first is key to life!

This marker is located in front of the gate of Tallahassee's Leon High School. It is easily…read morereadable though access during school hours could be a challenge. It reads, "The first Leon Academy opened in 1827, three years after Tallahassee's founding, and operated until the mid-1840s. In 1869, the Leon County Board of Public Instruction established separate schools for whites and blacks. In 1871, the county opened the Leon Academy as a public school for whites and, in 1885, constructed a two-story brick building on Tennessee Street between Duval and Bronough streets. The Board of Public Instruction passed a resolution in 1903 establishing a 12-grade high school known as Leon Graded and High School. A new school was dedicated on Park Avenue in 1911. On March 27, 1927, the Board of Public Instruction purchased 31.7 acres of McDougal Pasture for $22,000. Efforts by Mode L. Stone, Tallahassee's supervising principal of public schools, and a 1935 bond referendum and a loan from the Emergency Administration of Public Works led to the construction of the present school in 1936. Architect M. Leo Elliott designed the Mediterranean Revival/Italian Renaissance style building with its distinctive barrel tile roof with wide eaves and decorative rafter tails. The school had 50 classrooms, a cafeteria, kitchen, library and an auditorium. The new Leon High School was dedicated on May 28, 1937." Leon High School is one of the oldest high schools in the country, founded 14 years before Florida joined the Union. Construction of this building at 550 East Tennessee Street was funded by the Works Progress Administration. Until 1967 and school integration, this school was "whites only" but enrollment lately is 33% black. Leon High School's colors are red and white. Much like Yelp. Go Lions!
