My son attended Aquarian for kindergarten and 1st grade. I have absolutely loved this school. The teachers are great and love what they do. My son has excelled academically and socially. They provide great after school activities, awesome exploration days and many different things to stimulate kids learning. You will never walk into Aquarian and not see parents there volunteering. It's a really nice thing to see. The staff and the families get along so well. I would recommend Aquarian to everyone that I know. We are moving out of state and I am honestly sad to leave Aquarian.

Aquarian Charter school is a perfect balance of arts and sciences. It is a kid focused school with a lot of parent involvement. The inquiry-based delivery of the curriculum provides students with lots of problem solving opportunities which build important skills for later in life. Thanks Aquarian!!

The school is so warm and inviting! The teachers and staff work with students closely, create interesting and exciting learning experiences, and students who become self motivated learners because of their efforts. We love Aquarian and would recommend the school to anyone that wants a strong academic program, extra classes like Spanish and Technology, and a small caring learning community!

Aquarian Charter School is a wonderful place for my children to learn. They take the time to understand the needs of the kids. Not only the faculty and administration, but the parent volunteers as well.

A great fit for my child. If you want to be part of your child's education this is a welcoming place. Children are tested to determine their placement level in core subjects and are moved along accordingly. Parents here are expected to participate and volunteer in many capacities for the good of the whole school. It has to be good or I wouldn't commit to driving across town twice a day for the foreseeable future just so my daughter can go there!

Outstanding staff and administration. Friendly, lively, and positive. And recognized by other random district employees as elite.

Amazing, magical place. Children love to go to school- and skip down the hallways to classes.

Excellent! Spanish, art twice a week, explorations... what's not to love? The staff and teachers really have the best interest of the students in mind. It is excellent that more is required of the parents than chauffeuring children to and from school by requiring volunteer hours.
