Posted September 22, 2010

My daughter immediately excelled from the first week of attending this school. She was bored in the traditional school system because there were so many kids that needed extra help that the teacher did not have time to focus on kids who were ready to move on. She transitioned in the middle of the school year and was challenged right off. I worried that it would be too hard and discourage her, but it motivated her. She had all the help she needed to catch up. I would highly recommend this school to any student who loves academic learning and wants to know their true potential.

I graduated from this school in June. It was a great school. It all about respect and kindness. Teachers always care about their students and always helping them to make good choices all the time. It's great with both academics and social. Everybody have friends and will never get left out. But...it's a little hard to get in....the waiting list is super long.... and that's guaranteed that the Academy at Roosevelt Center is the best school in Idaho.

Each child is encouraged to their very best. They work at 'their' best everyday. They are continually challenged and each child moves ahead if they're ready. They're never held back to wait for the rest of the class.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Idaho used the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading, math and language usage, and in grades 5, 7 and 10 in science. The scores from the spring administration are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The grade 10 ISAT is a high school graduation requirement. The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering the specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Idaho. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
