Armadillo Technical Institute

I love this school, this school has changed my life. As the review on the bottom states, the schedule is very unique! The Student to Teacher ratio is a bit higher now, but not too much higher. and the teachers are awesome. I can honestly say that this school has saved my life. We are culturally diverse in many ways, which is a plus. However, every school has it's downsides. School Drama (not the good 'play' kind.) for instance. Though there isn't too much of it, what there is- because of the size of our school- gets blown out of proportion. Actually, that's about it for issues... Never mind!

This is a great school, its a really good way to keep kids in school. Its a great alternative to big public schools. Everyone knows everyone at A.T.I. Its better that way.

Excellent school for those kids who have difficulties learning in the 'traditional' manor. Armadillo, also has unique schedule; 4 weeks off for Christmas and 3 weeks for spring break. But school starts in late August and goes until late June. The student to teacher ratio is about 10:1 soemtimes less, not often more. We have two kids in school at Armadillo and the change in both of them is a miracle. They are not under as much pressure, they only get graded on what they complete in school. However, if they miss too many assignments, they will not get enough credit to complete the class. In other words, if a child turns in 1 out of 10 assignments and gets an A, the she will get an A for the work she completed, but only receive 1/10th of the credit needed to pass.
