Ben Franklin Academy Reviews
Rating 4.33 out of 5 6 reviews
We have loved this school. There seems to be a strong practice what you preach ethic in terms of kids respecting each other and respecting the staff. Kids aren't judgmental or snarky, and I have not seen behavioral issues whatsoever. The facility is new and beautiful, the staff and teachers are happy to be there and it shows in how they treat the kids and parents. They are responsive, challenging and supportive. The use of tech is the right amount and being a STEAM school seems to allow for creativity and rigor both. Being a charter, this school draws economic diversity and status doesn't seem to exist or register with the kids, people come from various walks of life. I am a parent of a 5th grader and it feels like this school is a group of safe, protected kids, no vaping, no bullying , no real attitude. Its the benefits of a private school without the elitism and general competitive malaise those schools often breed. We have not always been at this school and can compare.
This is a school that is very involved in the community. It is clear that the school as a whole cares about children's success in their future and they prepare them well for high school. There is a sense of community throughout. I am amazed by the parent involvement and the various opportunities students have to get involved in sports, clubs, arts, and extra educational opportunities.
Ben Franklin Academy continues to impress me with their outstanding curriculum. The teachers there go above and beyond to make kids excited about learning!!
