ECA is a tight knit community with good teachers and great students. I have been here for 3 years now, and I have been able to make some pretty solid friends. The one thing that isnt so great, is that the teachers come and go pretty quickly, and the building is always under construction. Other than that, it's a great school!
take my experience with a grain of salt, considering I was a guinea pig at the school. I graduated a year earlier than their oldest class of 2024 who are rising seniors. I was the first ever person to graduate from Excelsior classical Academy. I am thankful for my experiences there, yet there are many things that could use improvement. The classes offered are far better than ones that can be taken at regular public schools, or even some private schools. The education I got at Excelsior classical Academy, has set me up to continue to learn in college. The fact that they are a college, preparatory school is not lie. However, there were many issues with teachers and staff all throughout my years. There we had many teachers, who left, acted, inappropriately, and just overall seem to be uninterested in furthering the growth of our young minds. I personally felt targeted by many staff members, whether it was in dress code violations, or in exclusion from clubs or extracurriculars.
Wonderful school with a great curriculum. We have been here from the beginning, and we have had a great experience. It feels like family here. Our students are thriving. They have more than just reading and math: our kids have studied science, social studies, art, music, and other special classes, and Spanish in K-5, and our oldest is now taking Latin in middle school. Excellent education! Great teachers! We love the fact that they provide busing, too!
