Mrs. Hoover is an awesome consular!! The school it self is safe,respectful and ready to LEARN!!!
This school is a wonderful, safe environment. The standards of excellence are high and students are deeply cared about. The staff at this school are very caring and talented. They have school-based mentoring programs for struggling students and many other academic interventions!! The administration will do whatever it takes to provide an excellent learning environment. I LOVE this school.
I love this school!! They give my child a lot of one on one that he needs. They do not give up on your child if they struggle in a subject. They work even harder until they get it. Thank you 2nd grade kalidoscope reading!!! My son struggled a little bit but now he is doing wonderful. He loves school.
i use to attend this school and found that the teachers work with the students to make sure they understand the work before proceeding on withe the lessons/work
There's a lot of pride to be had in this school. I have nothing but great things to say about the teachers and the staff. If your child isn't making you proud at this school then you have no one to blame but yourself and your child.
WOW!! Teachers and staff go out of their way to support every child that attends Richfield Public School Academy. The education goes above and beyond many of the districs schools and no child is left behind. Parents can be involved with your child(ren) and their school at anytime of the year. R.P.S.A's Mr. Mcdowel puts on programs after school for families to gather and learn about culture, activities, or even a movie night and he goes all out to even serve dinner! Wow! I can't say enough positive things for R.P.S.A and their is so much going for the school and the children that attend! Their are so many programs before school, during school, and after school that your child can attend, whether kindergarten or 8th grade. Let's give R.P.S.A 5 Stars. Thank You R.P.S.A!
I am a teacher at RPSA and it was very disheartening to read some of the posted comments. One in particular is obviously outdated, since our building has been done for over a year now. The school is unique and after school activities are minimal, but anyone who enrolls their child should be aware of these things ahead of time. The academics and high expectations far exceed any Flint school. With SUPPORT FROM PARENTS the students will recieve a stellar education!
i go to this school and its so awesome i love all the teacher and the kids a easy to get along with. i love this school so much and i hope some of or kids come here. Im a student and I've been going to this school for almost 4 1/2 years i think or its 4 years but this school would be willing to have your kids at this school!
My daughter attened school at RPSA from the first day it opened until June 2007. Only changing because we moved. It was an exceelent environment and learning experience for her. The teachers we had were amazing and really cared about the kids. This school is a wonderful place and the other reviews really surprise me. The new building has been completed. It is lovely.
My daughter played out what she has lived through in school one day when we were just playing a make believe game of school. She started yelling at the top of her lungs mere inches from our faces when she percieved we did something wrong. we asked her if thats how it was at school and was given many shocking details of how loose the classrooms really are and how the staff just don't seem to be able to deal with kids. I ca't give this school even one star.
