I am currently a student at arroyo pacific academy and i can confidently say it is one of the best out there. AP provides direct and personal teaching which helps students understand and learn the material- as opposed to spacing out to a tedious lecture. Its a great school for everyone regardless of learning disabilities or past troubles. They have great academics and the student body generally receives good grades, add that and a strong loving staff as well as a close kind community wraps it up into one big casserole of awesome. I recommend AP to everyone!
Our son enrolled at AP in 8th grade, moved away for a year, and then returned to AP because we found that no other place offered the kind of personal attention that AP did. Mr. Clarke is an extraordinary educator and a wonderful human being. He has assembled a core of teachers who genuinely care for the students and treat them with respect and dignity. They helped our son build confidence, skills, and acquire knowledge. We recommend the school highly.
I am crrently a parent of a child who attends the school. This has been the best place for my son. He is happy and loves going to school everyday. Phil Clark only accepts high qulity teaching, respect the child needs. Mr. Maust, Mr. flag, Mrs. O, Mr. Johnson, and Ms. Bandares are some of my sons favorate Teachers. I recommend this school to all it is worth the evey penney.
As a student at Arroyo Pacific Academy I can confidently say there is no better school out there. For students who have trouble learning or just trouble in general, AP is definitely one to address and fix the situation. The way the school is set up gives a family-like environment. The faculty at AP actually care about the students
This school has been great as a transition school for my daughter who suffers from ADHD, they work with her to ensure she is receiving a quality education.
What we read on the website sounded promising, but there was not the follow-through that we hoped for. Maybe some of the teachers were not fully in agreement with the school's philosophy, but it was pretty easy for our kid to fall through the cracks. She got away with a lot more than she should have, given the teacher-student ratio. This was two years ago; the weaknesses may have been addressed.
