My son suffered a traumatic brain injury as a result of being hit by a car. I thought this would be a great place for him. He entered the Riverview Center Academy and was not only treated unfairly he was only doing wok sheets day after day. Wow we were so proud after that first report card then we found out why. Sending my son to Center Academy was the worst thing I could have ever done. I hope my son will forgive me. I thought I was doing what was in his best interest. Boy was I wrong.

Love the School and Staff. My children attended there last year and this year. My son could barely read upon arrival last year and now is on a 2-3 grade level.

This school has changed my son's life. He entered Center Academy the last two months of last year's school year. He was in a public school, he was tested as having the medical condition of dyslexia, he had an IEP completed, he was going into the 5th grade for the 3rd time! I found through McKay Scholarship, and Center Academy, they were understanding, kind, and just wonderful. My son started learning! He looked forward to school, he is looking forward to the new year! He is a part of America's future, and he is going to be a happy, productive, adult. He is a scholar thanks to Center Academy! -Rita D. Rhodes

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
