I was a little unsure about the Third Academy at first due to the negative reviews on YELP. but I am very happy that we made the decision to send both of our children to this school. For the first time in their elementary school career my children (ages 7-11) are finally learning. They are finally being held accountable for their academics and are receiving the type of education that the public mainstream system failed to give them. My children were falling through the cracks in the public system, were excluded from taking part in school plays etc. now they are thriving and get to participate in school plays and field trips. Our children ride the bus and communication with their driver has been fantastic. While other schools typically had bussing running late during the first week of school tHe third academy had theirs running on time. I have peace of mind knowing my children are safe at school and on the bus. The teachers, administrators, and support staff truly care about the kids there. They worked with our budget to find a rate affordable for us so our kids would not be excluded. These guys are not in it for the money as others have stated. They are in it to help children to reach their potential and be the best they can be. Whenever my kids have a bad day I always get communication from the teachers via text. It is a very efficient school and our family is very happy. read more

The CEO of the school Sunil Mattu had to close it's south campus this past school year for not paying the rent for the 4 years it occupied the building. A child died in a fatal bus accident in 2007, after they irresponsibly kept a bus driver on duty while being aware of her being suicidal. In 2013 I was severely beaten at the school, I ended up in the hospital with numerous abrasions, and a concussion. Sunil took zero responsibility for any of it, trying to accuse my family of making false accusations. After this incident took place I never wanted to return to the school. I feared for my safety everyday. The other student was suspended for one day, and I was forced to sit in the same classroom as him like nothing ever happened. I ended up getting transferred over to the North Campus, as if it was my fault. Sunil doesn't care about your kids and only wants your money because the Mattu family and the school are bankrupt. If you care about your children's safety and education then don't send your children to The Third Academy. A handful of teachers quit over the last 4 years and if that doesn't say something I don't know what will. You are better off sending your children to school elsewhere. read more
