I've worked with many of the Cartwright teachers, have observed them teach in classroom as well as…read moreteach professional development courses to fellow teachers. They are professional, knowledgeable, and motivated. The students I have interviewed seem happy and alert. I asked one Grade 2 student what they did at beginning of the day and he said something about studying the city of Phoenix. I asked him who the mayor was. Without hesitation, he said, "Greg Stanton." When I asked how he knew that, he replied, "I looked it up on the internet." That was in November, so early in his Grade 2 year. The administration and their staff are conscientious and eager to accommodate the needs of students, parents, teachers and the community. They are excellent.

My son attended 1 horrifying year here... This has got to be the worst un organized school in the…read morevalley..first of all they make the kids wear uniforms, and I am all for that except when I see teachers and staff dressed like they were on their way out of door to go to a rave..unacceptable .. In a whole school year I did not once see the principle out on school grounds and my son said he never saw him either..the secretaries dont know much and never return calls ..when you ask them a question they give you a look like they were a deer in headlights..my son was accused of something he did not do, and taken into the vice principle office and interrogated by himself without parent permission..should have taken that one to the board...but I am happy now I have him in a great school, the principle knows the kids by name..the teachers and staff are great ..but yet it lingers in my mind as to where all my tax dollars are going? This school should concentrate on getting organized..especially the principle and secretaries..also maybe a dress code should be in place for staff ...

I had the opportunity to substitute teach at Acclaim Academy this past April and May 2023. I was…read morepleasantly surprised and impressed with the school's learning environment. This is a safe and clean school and it shows by how engaged and respectful their students are. This is the first school I have experienced with a "no cell phone policy." This is huge! There are no cell phones allowed during school hours, so there are no distractions in the classroom or on the school premises. As a result, students are totally engaged, respectful, and device distraction-free. How refreshing! Acclaim Academy offers a clean environment. This is also the first school I have experienced with cleaning and custodial services being performed throughout the entire school day from start to finish. The halls, classrooms, and restroom facilities are fresh and spotlessly clean, and the grounds are well maintained. This clean and distraction-free environment enhances learning. Acclaim Academy also reinforces responsibility. This could been seen in laptop charging stations being wheeled from classroom to classroom, essentially following the student with their assigned laptop, rather than students grabbing any laptop from a stationary charging station that remains in each classroom. As a result, the laptops are in excellent condition because each student is responsible for their care. Acclaim Academy's administration and faculty are dedicated and excellent to deal with. Classrooms are orderly, students are eyes-front and engaged with the teacher and lesson plan at all times. It was a pleasure filling in as a substitute teacher.
