Destiny has an enceptional staff that works hard to make my children feel welcome and safe. The teachers are dedicated and make the learning fun. My children enjoy school and feel good about themselves... not characteristics of their former learning experiences. Thank you Destiny you are an asset to our community.

I would just like to say what a great school Destiny is. My two children have been attending for the past two years and have each had great teachers that have taught them so much throught the school year. I would also like to say that the office staff is always such a help and I know if I have concerns that I will be listened to. The Title 5, I believe, has been such a success for my 1st grader. My 5th grader has learned the value of money and the value of leadership through her class. I commend their teachers, past and present, for their work with my children. My children would much rather come to Destiny than go to the local public school and I agree with them.

I would personally like to commend my boys teachers this year..one in 8th grade. thank you so much. My son has come quite aways with your structural teaching. and also for my third grader. it has been a struggle for him and i thank not only his teacher but also the staff that has worked with him to give him his esteem back. he was so low in his reading and math. and i know its not much but i see progress. and for my 5 yr old in kindergarten i thank u for allowing him to be taught alittle earlier. He enjoys going to school everyday. and that tells me something about you all...that it takes a caring individual to see a child progress. so thank you so much Destiny staff. I appreciate all you have done for my kids.

I enrolled my kids in Destiny because I was told that it was much more structured and safer than the local public schools. I have no problems with the EDUCATION that my children receive at Destiny. What I DO have a problem with is the constant bullying they receive from other students with almost nothing done by the principal or teachers. I, as well as my children, have gone to the principal and teachers for help with the problem and nothing happens. The offending child is placed in a sort of in school suspension and once they return to the regular population the abuse continues. I fear for my childs safety! If you are a concerned and contientious parent such as myself please reconsider before enrolling your child in this school if you truly want them to have a safe and healthy learning environment.

I have been so pleased with my daughter's education at Destiny. It is nice to see the teachers happy and smiling; actually wanting to teach. I have two other children in public schools and I just cringe every time I have to deal with those other schools. No one looks happy and it is next to impossible to get answers when I call or email. The staff at Destiny genuinely care about my child. She was only 4 years old when she started there and I was nervous to put her in a charter school (not knowing anything about them). It was the best thing I could have ever done for her.

I am taking my child out of this school due to the lack of supervision/safety at the school and on the school bus. Follow through by the administrator is poor at best from what I have seen.
