We were looking for a school that could handle my grandson's exceptional math and science abilities, bring his reading up to snuff and deal with his mild ADD. This school did just that. Wonderful school I highly recommend.

AmeriSchools Academy is a charter on 15th Avenue and Camelback. With 200 students it allows us to express ourselves. It is a creative community that shows us different ways to show your feelings. Something unique about this school is that they follow the FISH! Philosophy. This is program to stay positive. There is Play, Make Their Day, Be There, and Choose Your Attitude. In other words, Have Fun, Be Nice, Pay Attention, and Be Happy.

AmeriSchools Academy-Camelback is a great school. I like it because it s such a small environment and the staff is great. The teachers are very helpful and understanding. They push you to your limits. At AmeriSchools students can feel safe, because bullying is not tolerated. Your child will be happy and safe while attending AmeriSchools. I think it has a lot to do with their philosophy. Here at AmeriSchools we follow the F.I.S.H philosophy. The F.I.S.H philosophy consists of four things, which include making someone s day, choosing your attitude, playing while learning, and being there for your peers and yourself. I love it here and anyone who decides to come will love it too

It takes a village to raise a child, Amerischools is a village that works together for the child, family and staff. I am proud to be a part of the village. The school offers small classes and a super supportive staff.

This school is so open to new ideas! It is one of the last schools around that do not teach to the test, we believe that teaching the whole child is what is important. Small classes does make a difference when trying to help struggling students. The Staff is caring and always look out for each others students, this shows the students that we work as a team and we all expect the same things! As a first year teacher here I have been able to explore so many options for teaching my students, using fun ways to teach unlike the scripted methods used in other schools. We work hard, and we have high expectations but we do it all in a fun happy environment! If you are looking for a school that will keep your child safe and teach him/her how to think and make decisions rather than how to take a test than this is the school for you! I am so happy that I found AmeriSchools.

This school is amazing. After working several years in a large public school district, I am so proud and thankful to now be working for the Amerischools family. The smaller class sizes means I can truly individual instruction and met the needs of EVERY child. The classrooms are huge and offer tons of natural lighting making for a superb learning environment. The children are amazing as well. The students are respectful, responsible and active in sports and their academics. I love that the school believes in inquiry, project-based learning. Something that is nearly unheard of in the larger, over-crowded public school classrooms. Students are truly engaged, challenged and balanced. GO AMERISCHOOLS!

My son attended this school K-8 and I have nothing but good things to say about the staff and the school in general.The teachers spend an incredible amount of their personal time participating in school activities. The work is challenging and the student behaviour is well above average. The kids that go here are very respectful and that is a testimonial to the staff. I'd like to thank the school for giving my child a great learning experience.

My daughter attended this school from kindergarten all the way through 8th grade. I credit her success, she is an honors student, to the teachers and principal of this amazing school. Keep up the good work!
