Sophia Academy

This is our first year as member of Sophia Academy family. All we have is admiration for our school from principal to teachers and staff. After five years struggle in public school our son shows interest in going to school every day. He loves Sophia Academy, and demonstrates that with hard work, when we threat to put him back in public school if he does not do his homework on time. We love our Sophia Academy family and recommend it to those parents who look for better school alternative for their children.

I am so happy and feel so blessed to be part of the Sophia Academy family!

I began searching for schools on the internet because my daughter was beginning to fall through the cracks in public school. After an extensive search I came across The Sophia Academy's site. As soon as I listened to Marie Corrigan and visited the school I knew I had found the right school. My daughter is in middle school. I have never seen her with this much self confidence. Her enthusiasm and desire to learn has returned. She is happy and excited to go to school. We just had a parent/teacher conference and before going I was trying to think of something I could suggest to make the day better. I couldn't think of one thing! We are that pleased. I hope this review helps any parent out there that has struggled, as I have, in making that decision. God bless all of you.

We are new to the school and so happy. Here's a quote from my daughter: "Mom, Sophia is worth every penny! These teachers know what they re doing and they are actually teaching me things. I love it here!

Several of the teachers are good but that is because of their own concern and drive and not because they have been properly trained by the admin. The school feels like a business and their obvious goal is raising more money, not sticking to their original goal of teaching kids with learning differences.

This is such a nurturing atmosphere and they just keep coming up with ways to individualize a learning program for my son's needs. He loves his school and they really challenge him on a daily basis. He has ADHD and some processing delays and the method of teaching addresses both with much care. Yes it is a lot of money but the public school system is not up to par for these type of children. They now incorporate traditional children with learning difference children within the same classrooms and it seems to make for a wonderful balance. The traditional program is less expensive so I would suggest ANY child attending Sophia!!!! The Orton Gillingham reading method is supposedly THE BEST for any learner. We are simply pleased:)

Sophia Academy saved our child! He was in a special program with Dekalb Cty Schools which were bad. His self esteem and happiness improved tremendously. The arts program is amazing. The teachers really care. Nice and convenient campus. This school was a true blessing. Definitely worth the money. I hate paying for an education, but this has been a great value.

My son was an invisible special education student at his elementary school and is an honored student leader at Sophia Academy. Like another parent noted, Sophia Academy was an answer to prayer for our family.

Sophia Academy has been a God-send to my family. My child has attended this school for 4 years and each year I have been pleased with the instruction and class size. He is currently 1 of 7 in his class now! The multi-sensory approach, small class size, multiple accommodations and modifications to instruction, advanced technology, great athletics, AND chapel are just some of the reasons why I love this school.

My son has a reading and processing disorder. He has a very high IQ. He attended this school and grew a little socially. At the end of the year his reading scores dropped by atleast one grade. He attended only one year. This school makes promises and does not deliver.
