We left Southwestern City Schools. My oldest is 5th-8th grade here. She's a great student &loves it! My youngest started in Kndgtn w/weekly homework&I'm thankful for this. I know if she would have gotten her start anywhere else, she would not be where she is today. They grade on an A-F scale in grades K-11, which I love! Once my youngest showed signs of struggling in reading...I FREAKED! Her having minor speech issues, didn't help with the reading level expected in kndgtn. She did so well in all other areas. She was even further along then cousins in district schools the same age, so when they wanted to retain her in kndgrtn, it was my worst nightmare. I had read&heard of this happening &didn't understand because I absolutely LOVED her teacher,&thought she was doing well. We made the decision to keep her here&I'm thankful. She flew thru her 2nd year with so much confidence. She's now thriving at the end of 1st grade. It's not always easy, but it's...A GREAT SCHOOL!
The school is very small, which is not ideal for everybody. It benefitted me because I was able to easily ask for and receive any help I needed. The teachers were dedicated to providing students with the best resources available and even giving them personal connections for support. I felt included in a way that no other school could make a student feel. Every accomplishment was recognized and appropriately praised. The school did everything in its power to provide students with the knowledge and resources needed to be successful in any future endeavor.
I was practically raised at this school; I've been attending Columbus Preparatory Academy since I was in middle school and it's such a loving and welcoming community. The teachers are very helpful and are very proactive in bringing creativity into the classroom. The high school experience is far from the average one. Academics is the main priority, so there are no competitive sports for the upper grade levels. All students are able to test into the college credit plus program and it really has benefitted me throughout my entire high school career. The school provided me with such great opportunities and experiences and I'm more than happy to recommend it to any other student.
