Desoto County Academy

My daughter went here for 2 years (6th and 7th grades). Sixth grade was great. Great teacher, great principal that kept order and respect. Seventh grade was horrible. Teacher didn't complete the books (75% of math) and was also the new principal, which is too many roles for one person. When the board was approached they were very defensive with regard to problems and an attempt to solve same. Will NOT be back.

This school is awesome. My child was there for 4 years then I decided to let my child attend another private Catholic school. I am not too happy there and will be returning my child next year! This school truly does teach the children Christian values and all of my other children will be attending DCA!

This is an awesome little private school, my son attended last year for 2nd grade. His teacher and staff made extra effort to make sure I was informed of everything about his day from his grades to his behavior. I felt so intuned with everything overall! I absoultely love the fact that he is learning about religion as well as using the Beca curriculum. He loves getting up and going to school each day and I love that he is happy! He will definately be attending next year!

My daughter just finished 1st grade and my son pre-k4. This is a wonderful school. Not only are they taught about religion and how to be good Christians, but they are up to date with the Beca curriculum. Some of their books are old in the library, but to me, this assures me that they will be taught about history and not forget the important things. The parents could be a bit more involved. I know it is hard when you work, but as a parent, we need to make sure we fullfill out commitments. The staff is very professional and friendly. They do not hesitate to discipline a child if needed. Overall, I can not imagine my kids going to a public school or even another private

I went to DCA and graduated from there in May of 2000 now my son is going there. The school is very small but has alot potential if it is given the support it needs from the surrounding communites. The Christian atmosphere are perfect for children just starting or those who may need a boost in the right direction. PLease come and check out school out.
