My son attends this school and we are extremely happy and satisfied with the quality of education he is getting. Everything about the school is great, from the academics to the focus on building character. The environment is very family oriented and focuses on preparing the students for College. The teachers and staff are highly trained, knowledgeable and caring. We love everything about this school and are happy to be part of it!
Very happy with Eagle for my first grade daughter. Had to decide between Vista and Eagle and made a great decision. Eagle is a Great school with strong leadership and parent involvement. Focus on citizenship with a loving emphasis. I think Eagle is under rated and will continue to grow in all areas in the coming year.
I have 2 boys at Eagle College Prep and 1 on the way next year.:) My oldest did a full year at Eagle as a Kindergardner then moved over the summer to be close to family while my Husband was in Iraq.TO THE POINT! By 1 semester at top rated school in Avondale, both my boys had learned ABSOLULEY NOTHING. I came to Eagle LITERALLY in tears and asked that my kids be put back into the school with my promise to pick up and move back to Laveen within weeks.That is how important I felt it was for my kids to GO back to Eagle. It cost our family, a military paid family mind you $5000.00 move and break our lease. No money could equal the opportunity to have a child in Eagle College Prep.THE BEST EXPERIENCES I HAVE HAD WITH EAGLE: When my oldest came back to Eagle he was so far behind in reading. In less than 1 full year he has bumped his reading level 2 grades.He now reads at his correct level. My middle child went from not knowing not even a letter to reading within 1/2 a year. The morals and expectations that Eagle has for there scholors is what each child needs to help them grow with great character and responsiblility. If you want your child to grow with character and morals, Eagle is 4 u!
EAGLE has far surpassed my idea of what a Great School should be! Initially moving to the South Phx area we thought the best education and only suitable option for our children was a Private School.... until we found EAGLE. We were so excited to find an amazing school in our own community! The teachers are highly educated, professional, organized, loving, and caring. The administration and staff go above and beyond to see this school not only succeed but also flourish- which is evident through our latest school label as a HIGHLY PERFORMING "A" RATED SCHOOL!
Selecting the right school for our boys was a very big decision as it is for every parent. We are confident that we made the right choice for them with EAGLE College Prep. We are proud to watch them learn and grow more and more each year. The Teachers and Staff go above and beyond to create a great environment focused on learning and fun. We especially love the Character Counts program and positive culture that continues to grow at this school!
EAGLE College Prep is a school parents rant and rave about but if they really looked at their school they would see otherwise. The professionalism and organizational skills of the school itself is POOR. They may have SOME awesome teachers but that is all. Who they hire as staff, non teachers, are individuals whom other schools would never higher due to their experience and work ethic. I have to say it was a gold mine its FIRST year but now it is not the same. YES it has community support and parental involvement that is what makes it strong but the teaching and status of the school itself is inefficient.. It is an AVERAGE school.
EAGLE is a fantastic school, with loving & caring teachers who want nothing but the best for our children!! We could not be more greatful for these amazing teachers, and how they have really helped our daughter. She is thriving academically and socializing .. and she LOVES going to school!!!
Being a parent of a child who just finished kindergarten, all I can say is that this school and the teachers that my child had were amazing. He came in with only a small amount of knowledge from a preschool that had dropped the ball. Since just finishing K, he can now read at first grade level, does double digit math (1st grade level) and can tell time and also has a great respect for the classmates and teachers that he had. The staff all showed loving and tender care for all the students and seemed to focus on individuals needs. Not everone is at the same level of learning, and they taught with this in mind. His teacher, Miss Flores, was very patient and also went the extra mile to give us suggestions and help to get our child to excel. She would hug him at the end of each day and tell him what a great job he was doing. Small children need this kind of love and approval. I'm so very proud of him and so glad we chose Eagle for him. We are now having to move and are trying to find a home within the area so that he can still attend school at Eagle, despite that our family and friends live in north Phoenix. The education level is superior to other schools out there.
Eagle has definitely set the bar for what Learning and Education should be about for the rest of the schools in Arizona!
EAGLE is the best thing that has happened to my child. The teachers care about the children and do everything they can to help them when they need it. The Character Counts Program has also help my whole family
