Academy of Dallas

I can't wait to get my child out of this school! (Vernon Campus) Some of the teachers are just plain rude. They curse (yes curse!) at the kids & they are very insensitive to special needs children. One teacher has even been known to put her hands on the students! They have no problem with embarrassing your special needs child in front of the whole class. They say things like "If you don't get to work I will break your neck." Don't even try to express your concerns to Mr. Young the director. I have found that he laughs off what the teachers do & makes excuses for them. They have absolutely no tissue or soap in the bathrooms (gross huh?) I'm fed up with the unprofessional atmosphere that this school shows. Never again will my child attend here after this school year.

I enrolled my daughter in academy of dallas this past week and i must admit first impression is everything to me. The staff was very nice to me and down to earth. I will be back later to give my full review but as of now the school is excellent and so are the many personalities that occupy the school.

Academy of Dallas ( Oak Park ) I must say I absolutely love this school and it's teachers. My son is in Pre-K and by far surpassed other children we know that are in his same age group enrolled in other Pre-K programs.

The teachers are better than most private schools my child was at a private school with a so called good reputation for as academics were concerned but the previous teacher did not take nearly as much time to work with my child and now my child has made tremendous progress thanks Academy of Dallas. You have very special teachers!!!!

Two of my children attended this school(PreK-1st)and this campus was the best of the two. The second campus is a different story. My oldest son (2nd grade at the time)was diagnosed with dyslexia and went untreated by the school the entire year. I've never met the counselor or principal regarding my son's curriculum. My son could not read in the 2nd grade! At all. And they just continued to pass him. They never modified his work to fit his needs or took the time as education professionals to counsel me on what to do for him. I hate this school for damaging my son's self esteem and not helping him to reach his potential.

This school is a big mess. The professionalism at the shcool is little to none. The school advertises all these programs that are suppose to be available but once you enroll you found out different information. My son was enrolled and fell below grade level. I pulled him out now he has shown great improvement.
