Dove Academy is awesome school to send your child for that thorough education you been looking for. Dove really prepares all their students for college preparing. My son has been attending since Kindergarden and loves it. My son is now in the first grade and he is already learning Alegebra, wow. Good job Dove Academy!

I'm a proud parent of twin girls attending Dove and I can't be more happier of the choice I made to put the girls here. The teachers and staff have always done a wonderful job, parents need to be a little more involved. I would and have recommended the school to a friend or relative. Each year it has been something new and wonderful to improve the quility of the school. Come and be a part of group of wonderful, caring, and hard working people.

Hello parents Dove Academy is an excellent school. The school has music, art, and do indeed have outside activities which is recess for all the students. My child attend this school, I have visited other schools and this is the best school. The teachers are supportive and the educational cirriculum is challanging to the students. The staff genuinely care which make this a great school.

I am very disappointed with Dove Academy. This school has no outside activity along with a non-supportive suff. My kids was attending Dove K-4. And I can assure you that this will be the last year my children will attend. The principals ignore phone calls. And my daughter 4 grade teacher has my daughter afraid to ask question. Very none caring. I would never recommand this school to any parents. If you live in the area go out of the way.

I am a parent of two boys that attend Dove Academy. I feel it is a great school. My oldest son came from a public school required him to repeat the first grade. I immedicately started looking for another school and Dove was the one. They really helped him alot. The staff was very very supportive. My second son on the other hand began Kindergarden with Dove and by the end of his Kindergarden year he was reading on a grade level higher than his older brother. The only thing is that they do not have a lunch program. Other than that they have some of the most conserned teachers and administrators in the business of education.

I am a grandparent of a Dove Academy School student who just finished kindergarten. I found teacher, Mrs. Miller, teaching from the heart, scholastically motivates her students, gives voluminous homework which the children enjoy completing, while it makes sure they are focusing on more than TV in the evenings. I like the security measures used when picking up the children--they are escorted by the teachers and paraprofessionals professionals. Diantha Tillman

I was one part of the first group of educators teaching at Dove Academy. I taught 4th grade and loved every moment. One of the highlights of the year was the musical The Garden Show which we performed both during school hours and a parent presentation in the evening. The students were amazing. I will always have fond memories of the children of whom Ive taught.

I am a proud Dove Academy Parent. Their academic learning program is excellent. My child left a private school to come to Dove and she didn t miss a beat. Their academic learning schedule is almost better than her old private school. Most private schools focus mainly on academics and less on activities, but Dove does both. I would definitely recommend this school to any parent who is looking for a Professional learning environment for their child. The only down fall is that they don t go up to grades 12.

My daughter has been a student with Dove Academy since Kindergarten and she is currently going to the second grade. I am very pleased with the academic program and has recommended this school to my relatives. I am not concerned with the color of any teacher or student just the quality of education my daughter is receiving. Two thumbs up!
