Atlanta Heights Charter School

This was my child's 1st year @ this school and I shiver @ the thought of my child returning next year. This school is all about collecting money. Nothing promised @ the beginning of the school year was delivered & the lack of discipline is amazing! No extra curricular activities or foreign language are offered. This was the 6th grades first year & it was a NIGHTMARE! There is a lack of organization and a sense of scattered brained thinking operating this school. I gave a 1 star rating because I could not leave all blank.

"What do you see when you look at me? I am an Atlanta Heights Trailblazer!" This is the beginning of the creed that every scholar (not student :-)) must learn when entering this serious institution of education. Parents complained of the lack of a good school for their children where here it is. The staff is dedicated to the education of each scholar, they get the parents involved, and they teach an old school value that many schools no longer incorporate into their lesson plans; MORALS! So many are concerned with sports when I know there are kids (in my neighborhood) who can't even read but can put the ball in the hoop. Not My Scholars and I say SCHOLARS proudly! Thank You Atlanta Hieghts for caring. I know all of us parents aren't the best, but I thank God and you for coming here to help us and our children become better. TRAILBLAZERS ALL THE WAY!

I have four scholars that attend Atlanta Heights Charter School grades ranging from Kindergarten, 2nd, 4th, & 5th. This would be my scholars second year and I continuously see educational growth within all of my children. I am very impressed with the teachers genuine concerns with regards to each student s academic understanding and growth which makes me comfortable to send my children to school every day. Homework assignments are given daily and special projects are given periodically to give each scholar additional learning experiences that will build character. I would admit that there are a few services or programs that Atlanta Heights do not offer as a traditional school such as buses for the students to and from school or before or after school care however I believe the lack in one area Atlanta Heights definitely makes up in other areas. I would recommend this school to any parents that want the best education, structure, and future for their children.

This school lacks the bases of there school which is Moral Focus. There are no extra educational curriculum offered at this school for regular student, only for student who have low scores. There is no tutorial for students who just need a little extra help and are passing. There is a lack of discipline in this school in regards student with behavior issues or special needs and no one on staff to address there needs. This school is counting heads for dollars. Therefore they are willing to put up with students who are disrespectful to the teachers and they disturb the harmony of the class rooms.
