Before coming to Bessemer Academy I attended Brookwood High School, at Brookwood i was challenged, or pushed to do my work or to do better at getting work done. But when i came to Bessemer Academy the teachers and students were so opened to me and welcomed me with loving arms and pushed me to do better at my school work and challenged me with my work instead of just handing it to me and giving me the answers or telling me to look it up on my phone like Brookwood did. I wish i would’ve transferred to Bessemer Academy sooner, it’s definitely the best school ever!
I started attending Bessemer Academy my Freshman year of High School and I have to say, Bessemer Academy is truly like an home. Everyone there is very nice and friendly! I made friends the first day and are still friends with them today! The Teachers are very helpful and will not stop helping you until you have understood the lesson. It is a Christain belief school, your child will hear about the word of God Numerous amount of times throughout the years he or she is there. The only negative thing I actually have to say about the school is that the bathrooms and locker rooms are not the best. This school has so much more behind it though. Not only we have 3 consecutive AISA Football Championships, we are also featured and the set of the movie “Run the Race”! This school is where your child wants to be if he or she want to have good friends, great education and information about the word of God.
I love the atmosphere at Bessemer Academy! This private school creates a home atmosphere with friendly teachers that want their students to succeed. The academics are challenging, but the teachers and staff are helpful. BA has a great sports program with great coaches to help students also succeed outside of academics. The administration at BA stops issues arising with students brought to their attention. Because BA is a private school, the parent involvement is high. These teachers and staff at BA care about the students, and want them to be well rounded individuals after they graduate. Everyone at Bessemer Academy has prepared me for after high school and I am thankful.
