Alum: I loved my time at Carlisle! I attended from 7th to 12th grade, starting in the second year of the school's operation. For me it was the only alternative in Martinsville for a college prep curriculum at the time - I especially wanted to take Latin, which was not offered in public schools. Small classes, amazing teachers, unique learning opportunities and challenges. And as a K-12 school, definitely a family environment. I loved driving my sister (in 6th grade) and brother (in 1st grade) to school when I was a senior! And, best of all - I got advanced placement in all my college subjects, invited to be in the Honors Program - and college was easy after Carlisle!... Read 41 reviews

Senior: My 3 years thus far at Bassett High School have been mostly positive. I appreciate the community between students, teachers, and staff. Every teacher I have had at Bassett truly wants me to succeed in everything I do. They are always willing to provide extra help to me, whether academically or emotionally, after class or even through an email. I am also extremely proud to be a member of Bassett's outstanding band program; however, Bassett's performing arts programs as a unit are incredible. The one thing I would change about my school would be for us to have better guidance for our futures. It almost seems as though our guidance counselors are too afraid to give in-depth information about college: anytime I ask for scholarship information or even where would be a good school to attend I never receive an honest answer. Because of all this, I feel like I will be at a bit of a disadvantage entering my senior year without true guidance for my future.... Read 146 reviews

Parent: The curriculum is thoughtful, encourages critical thinking and think outside the box. While the school has a strong focus in math and science, my child is getting a well rounded education with classes in Language Arts, History, Community, etc., electives in art, foreign languages and history of food as well as after school fun like drama, sports and animal lovers clubs! The daily updates are informative detailing by class what my child did that day and I like the sneak peak on what the higher grade levels are learning/reading/doing. The teachers encourage the students to advocate for themselves but they are always on hand to help! My child has developed strong friendships with kids at various grade levels which shows that there is a common comradery and closeness in this community. The best review I can give comes from my child who says that Ideaventions Academy "is the best school ever!" and we wholeheartedly agree.... Read 7 reviews
