We have three students at Battle and find it a great place for them to learn. Any issues I've had I've been able to address candidly with the teachers or administration. My wife and I are consistently impressed with how are children are being challenged and cared for there.

I have experience different levels of experience at Battle Academy coming from a private school. I have a Kindergartener and a Second grader. My kindergartener has had a wonderful experience at Battle and my second grader has a yearning to go back to the privated school in which he came from.

I am a parent of a special needs child. In February of 08 my child had a very limited vocabulary. After spending the year (thus far) in Kim Hays's room, she can now hold a conversation. Where once I thought her father and I would never hear her truly speak, tears come to my eyes and happiness in my heart for Ms. Hays and her program that gave my child a voice! It's truly amazing what Ms. Hays can do and we will always be grateful to her.

I was the first student to be accepted into battle academy and my mom( a 5th grade teacher) was the first teacher to be hired. I knew we were very lucky because the principal and vice principal were very nice and cool. I instantly had a wonderful realtions ship with them,

I would choose this school over many private ones. I love the teaching curriculum, the parent involvement, and the outstanding teaching and administrative staff.

I am very pleased with the quality of educational instruction my child receives from Battle. When speaking to each of my child's teachers, I feel that each one has developed a personal relationship with my child as an individual. They are interested in nuturing the individual which is very important to me. Furthermore, our child participates in music, art, Spanish lanuage, and physical education classes. These extras create a well-rounded individual. Every couple of weeks workshops are offered which create a learning experience where parent and child develop a relationship centered on education. My wife and I are very please.

Battle Academy is a wonderful place to work! I love the children and their very diverse families. The staff is super and everyone goes the extra mile for the kids. We realize that each child is unique and strive to foster growth and development in each one. I have taught school for over 15 years and I have NEVER worked in a school were each teacher truly LOVES where they are and what they do! I not only work here but I also bring my children here as well. I would encourage any parent to check out Battle when trying to decide where to send their children.

Battle Academy offers all learners the opportunity to learn the thinking skills needed to meet the intellectual and social challenges of the new millenium! When you walk in the buliding, you can notice a difference in the physical and emotional environment (bright, clean, friendly hallways filled w/student displays and noise level in classrooms is positive and productive!) Furthermore, when you look in classrooms, students are engaged and learning through integrated lessons and activities. The student achievements at Battle are so multi-faceted that reading above grade level is a given for most and attainable by all. It seems there are no children left behind. This is reflected in the faces of the students and the increasing test scores. My daughter is more of a well-rounded intellectual in kindergarten than I ever imagined possible!
