I was highly disappointed when my son attended this school for the 2010-2011 school year. This was the most unorganized, unprofessional establishment that I have ever encountered. The teachers and the entire staff need a course on common courtesy and etiquette. I recommend to any parent that is considering this school to try any other option before applying here.
My child will not attend this upcoming school year. Also heard that other kids will not be attending this coming year. Education is great! But that's all! Please look more into the school before trusting them with your child.
I have a now 1st grader and a 6th grader at CFA. Although I've had a few rough patches with the school, overall I give them a thumbs up. My son who's going to the 1st grade can do tripple digit math off the top of his head. His reading is supberb! I am totally amazed at the work he accomplished and was only in kindergarten. My daughter is moving to the 6th grade and during 5th grade, she was involved in projects that I didn't even learn until 7th and 8th grade. I love the small class structure that allows the teachers the opportunity to have that one on one with the student if needed. Its a family enviornment where everyone is committed to every child succeeding. I highly recommend them!
I have attendent this school for 7 years and this school is grest i wish that i could go back, the teacher's are the best teacher's ever. The school might be small but it is full of great education and love.
cfa is a excellent school i have one son graduated 5 year ago from cfa he is currently a senior in high school. one son attending cfa now i recommend them highly. Adlissa Smith
I am a proud CFA parent. My little girl attends and she is absolutely enamored with her academic experiences. My daughter has a teacher that goes far above and beyond. The prinicipal has a genuine interest in ensuring that every child succeeds and that is just wonderful to me.
The school is just now adopting academic programs that are beneficial and advancing to the students, but the teachers have not been properly training to use the programs. The teachers are not very professional and most of them cannot control their classrooms. The school's curriculum overall is behind the curriculum of other schools in the area. Not advanced at all.
