Parent: The curriculum is strong, with students working above grade level in many subjects. Teachers set high expectations and then help each child achieve those goals in a warm and nurturing environment. Each day students’ folders are filled with the work that they have completed so that parents can be informed of their child’s progress. Any obstacles are handled at early stages and the child is treated with the utmost respect every step of the way. The emphasis on STEAM is helping to prepare students for a successful future. Every member of the staff knows each kid--not only their names, but their individual personalities. Additional benefits of ACE include smaller class sizes, character development, a uniform that minimizes drama in the mornings, responsive staff, and an exceptional facility. I am confident that my children have a strong educational foundation and love of learning that will serve them well going forward.... Read 7 reviews

Parent: Our family had 4 kids pass through North School. Each child had completely different learning styles and abilities, and each one got exactly what they needed. From special ed to enrichment programs, this school has it all. We especially loved the family atmosphere, and we appreciated the extra mile the teachers and administration go for their students. North School offers art, music and theatre opportunities, as well as athletics. The PTA is second to none! There are so many opportunities here that most schools don't offer. Our children's education went far beyond reading, writing, addition and subtraction. Our family was blessed to call North School "home" for more than 17 years!... Read 2 reviews

Alum: My school was fairly good for a high school. In terms of administration, it was far from perfect. When COVID hit, it was a mess, and nobody (students or teachers) was happy. However, now that I'm in college, looking back at my high school education, my school did a better job at teaching us necessary scholarly skills such as essay-writing than some of my peers' high schools. My entry-level college writing course was incredibly easy for me because of the quality of my education in high school. Overall, although the school itself wasn't great, the education was incredible, and I do not necessarily envy others' schools.... Read 255 reviews

Parent: We enrolled our son in Fork Union Military Academy after seeing so many YouTube videos that touted the benefits of the one-subject program and the school. The promise of focus, structure, and accomplishment came through. He passed all his classes in this, his first year, a sophomore at FUMA. We took advantage of their academic success program. There he found continuous support and cheers! They found novel approaches to reach him, took the time to learn about him, and flexed their approaches. I have been concerned in the past about the ability of teachers who are not Black to 'see my son' as an individual. At FUMA, they know him, challenge him to be his best, hold him accountable, and motivate him. I am proud of what he has done this year. As a testament to the place, he is looking forward to going back in the Fall - he's proud that he's earned a promotion in rank and knows he can do even better academically. Amazing....
