My son scored off the charts on the IQ tests, but wasn't doing anything in the public school. He would bring all his worksheets home marked "please finish". The teachers have to spend all their time with the kids who have the learning disabilities, and the kids who don't speak english. I couldn't be happier with TCA. The atmosphere is so different - the students are relatively calm and respectful, the teachers show respect for the students, there aren't the discipline problems I have seen at other schools. I have so much flexibility in his curriculum, as well as the freedom to substitute lessons or activities that are more suitable to my son's strengths. The parents of these students have made a major commitment of time to their children's education, and it shows. The school makes the best use of parent volunteers to offer an impressive range of extra curricular workshops on everything from cooking to fencing, to golf, to needle crafts, to dog training, to chess club, to Shakespeare, and the list goes on. This school is a major asset to the community, as well as a model for other charter schools nationwide.
We just started at Classical this year and I can't imagine life without them. The parents and staff are fantastic. They offer amazing programs and their curriculum is so advanced and you can personalize it for every child. I am so glad we are a part of such a great community. I look forward to growing with them for years to come.
I love this school. It has been the answer to all my prayers. My daughter is dyslexic and was struggling in Poway schools. At Classical she has found a place where she is finally understood. They give her all the help she needs, and with all the extra activities they truly give her a chance to shine. Her self esteem has dramaticly increased. I couldn't ask for more.
love this school. after many problems with Calvin Christian we decided to put our daughter in a new school and when I started with Classical Academy it was wonderful from the start. The staff is great and so helpful and all the parents I have met are so nice and willing to offer there help to new parents in the school.
