Aspira Raul Arnaldo Martinez Charter School

This school is pretty good. I attened it for my 3 middle schools years and I did enjoy myself. Some teachers there really care about the students and they are really nice. I graduated from there this year, and prom was nice I had so much fun with my friends and the teachers were there dancing, it was so funny. We all had our ups and downs with the school but at the end it turns it great and we all try to work it out. And the principal is nice and she understands but if you get her pissed, you will sufer the concequences. Anyway one thing i didnt like was the "all black shoes policy" and now my friend that goes there says that they have a "new rule" which is that you cant wear hooded jackets. Well I guess, but if you asked me, I'll recomand people to enroll at ASPIRA RAM Charter anytime. Thats it so BYE, and I hope you enjoyed reading this.

This school is good in the sense that Children get a good education. However the biggest problem I have with this school is that they do not teach their children about the Holocaust, one of the most important events students need to know about history.

Since the first day that my oldest son transfered into Aspira till now when my second son is in attendance I am very pleased. I feel that my children are getting a quality education from a staff that cares. The facualty is etremely knowlageble and understand how to reach the youth of today. I fully support this organization and I will continue to do my personal best to help it to continue to succeed.

The staff are very aware of what goes on with each student. The academic material is suited to each grade and studend needs. I am invited to visit the school with prior notice, and the teachers do their best to work hand-in-hand with the parents and students. I feel completely at home every time I visit. Everyone on staff treats me as an inportant member of the school. I can request and receive weekly progress reports on how my child is doing. This is not so at many Dade County schools. If I had other children, they would be enrolled in Aspira.

I graduated in 2003 Aspira is the reason for my aspiration to continue my educations in university. Aspira is like a family and the administration still calls me to make sure I am doing well. I am now graduating with my bachelor's in political science and Aspira is the reason I love politics we had many career days to help us with our future. All of my peers that have graduated with me are either business owners, graduates or are currently in school. ASPIRA is a great family school

This school is excellent i went there during 2007-2008 2008-2009 i graduated as class of 09' this school is a great school the teacher are very good with the students,every school has some effects no school in the world is perfect because nothing is perfect in the world so all yall parents don't talk bad about this school because i bet you didn't even go there to study so i don't know why you parents out there are putting this school as if it's the worst their is well guess what it ain't the worst school okay so get that in yall heads.

This school is just as bad as the other N. Miami Schools. When I enrolled my son, I thought because it was a charter school, it would be better, but it's not. I was expecting something better. My son is not allowed to take any textbook home because each class uses the same books. very disappointed.

I think that this school is not such a great school some kids just come to play but not to learn.

This school is not the right school for my child.There is no organization, the students act as if they are animals(no offense), the school is too small, and I feel as if the teachers are laid back and don't try to help the students as often as they should.

The most important factor I have found thourout the 4 years my son has obtained at Aspira. He has learned a great deal of responsibility,achecived goals, discipline, and through the strong force of leadership skills guided by the Principal,Assitant principle and teachers he has grown to be a fine young man.
