I am a former student and I suprisingly graduated last year, I say that because I'm an I.E.P and this is one of the worst schools have ever been to, I don't really like charter schools period, and I remember in 8th grade when I told the principle that I'm struggling with my school work (mainly math) she accused me of not trying hard enough, not doing my work and called me a bad student when I was a special Ed student. I didn't learn anything in fact I passed social studies within D and now in high school I'm at low reading amd math levels because I didn't getbthe extra help I needed. I would not recommend this school to anyone especially if your son/daughter is an I.E.P. Their building is awful. So please if you value your kids education don't put them in this school!
My daughter attends Twenty-First Century Public Academy and I am so happy I enrolled her at this school. There are regular OSI's that I find are a great way for her to learn about things in her pre-teen life other than school and her parents. She loves the friends she had made and has done better at this school than any other she has attended.
My son is in 6th grade and the school is okay. They take a lot of field trips (OSIs) ~20-25. The school is very unorganized. This is my biggest complaint. The academic standards are better than other middle schools. The teachers are a lot harder on boys and they seems to have a lot more activities for girls. FYI, The location will change next year.
The teachers and the principal are willing to help out students in need. The cirriculum, especially the 8th grade cirriculum, is challenging and incorporates real life lessons (how specific knowledge can be applied). I like the schools involvment in the community as well as their many OSIs-Out of School Instruction. My children learned more than academics at 21st Century, they learned how important it is to be a productive member of society.
My son attended from 6th through 8th. I was pretty happy with the teachers and the school. I would say a high % of his class attended this school from 6th to 8th. Students were very mature but still kids. For high school, all are going to many different high schools. It is quite easy to float through 21st century as long as the student does their work. Academically parents will have to follow-up with their child to verify they are challenging themselves and and trying to get better grades. Please note the school has said they will be moving in the next couple of years to a more permanent structure.
I am curently a student a Twentyfirst Century and I belive the acedemic standard is set very high. I belive the school is not very well kept under control at some times but It is a good learning school.
This is an excellent school. My normally hard to engage son loves it. He is leaning more than ever and is earning the grades I always knew he could. The staff is incredibly dedicated and approachable. We could not be more pleased.
My son went to 21st Century for sixth through eighth grade and loved it. He had a very positive experience. They have some very good teachers that are very involved in the kids' learning. I would highly recommend this school. The only negative is that the facilities aren't ideal. However, it's a small sacrifice when your child enjoys going to school every morning.
