Me and my kids love this school.teachers are very nice and hard working. My kids used to go to public school they didn't like the school but now they are very happy,they love manara academy.
Very unprofessional principal. Principal yells at students. Administrative staffs argue with parents just to show their power.Very unprofessional attitudes. Students are treated badly. Needs new administration to prosper. New Principle would be the best way to restart.
My son is goes to MANARA ACADEMY,He is very lucky,I love Manara academy,Teachers & Stuff,really helpful
I have 2 sons and a daughter going to this school. Everyday, all three of them complain about the school. They say the lunch is terrible and the teachers use profanity them. I don't suggest anyone one going to this school
great teaching skills great teachers,it has great organisation. my kids love this school,they love their teachers. principal is very nice they respond to the parents and interact with parents.
This is our second year at Manara, and I am proud to say that we were there from the start! I am extremely pleased with the staff, administrators and most of all, the teachers. You can really tell that they care about the students and have a vested interest in their success! The small enviroment really lends to the sense of community. I am heavily involved in the PTO, and my only gripe about Manara would be that more parents get involved and support this amazing school, rather than relying on the handful of dedicated volunteers that are spread thin supporting the teachers and staff.
This is our second year at Manara Acadmey. I have 2nd and 6th grade boys attending the school. Overall, very pleased with the nurturing and caring environment at the school and the level of educational instruction. It is a small school environment that fosters a sense of community. They offer french or arabic as part of the school curriculum. They have strong quality and caring teachers that go above and beyond to make children really love the school. I am an active parent volunteer at the school and have seen first hand the quality of learning and nurturing from the administration/staff/teacher and board of directors.
I love the fact that field trips are called "field studies" students will enjoy the day out but will also be involved in the learning part of it, parents who chaperon learn a lot too!
