My 3 children have attended this school of music and arts for the past 3 years. I would like to start by saying that when they first attended this institution for higher learning in 2015, it was great. They had an excellent music program. The teachers and staff were very pleasant and professional. Going in to the second year the school had issues with teachers and staff leaving and had to start the year with a shortage of teachers which made it difficult to keep providing the students with a good education. The school assured us they would fix all the kinks after having 60 percent of the staff replaced at the beginning of 2016 school year. By the end of the year they had lost many students because of the lack of training the replacement teachers had. So unfortunately the 2017 and 2018 school year was no better, it was actually and we made the decision to withdraw our children from ACAA before the new year had come. This once great charter school of conservatory for arts and academics is no longer the school that took pride in the higher learning they provided which made them unique from any other public school.

I have 5 children. Twins who attend the junior high and triplets who attend the elementary school. We drive 32 miles one way/64 miles round trip to attend this wonderful school. I have one daughter who needs much help as she has a processing delay. I hired a child developmental therapist to come in and observe her in the classroom and she could not say enough wonderful things about the education and personalized attention my daughter was receiving. Her teachers have worked tirelessly to help her improve. They don't dumb the curriculum down for her they try to lift her up to the other class members. The school days are only Mon-Thur allowing students to come in on Fridays for a few hours for extra tutoring. They even allow students to retake tests they struggled with. The arts program is amazing! The principal knows my children by name and meets with me personally if I have concerns about the education of my children. I can't say enough good things about this college prep, A school.

I have been extremely pleased with ACAA for my elementary and secondary students. The guitar and dance programs are phenomenal!! My kids do receive homework, but it seems to be just the right amount. I have had very good experiences in all of my communications with teachers, staff and administration. I look forward to my children continuing their educations here through their senior years.

It is so upsetting to see posts on here that don't accurately show what this school is about. This school is different than most in a good way and what the students produce out of the arts classrooms is amazing! Simply take a walk through the halls and you can see from the murals and artwork on the walls to the music coming from the dance, band, piano, guitar, and voice rooms and see how good these teachers are. The students are encouraged to be themselves and express their individuality as they see fit. You wont find any cliques or bullying and everyone is inviting and helpful. Of course im not saying that this school is perfect and there is always room for improvement but for what it is, it's a pretty amazing school.

Highly DON'T recommend coming here if you're looking forward to a visual arts program. The teacher was HIGHLY condescending and just flat out snobbish and rude. I did not enjoy my time in that school, considering I went ALL the way out there for a \spectacular\ visual arts program. The front office staff was quite rude and they never really acknowledged their \strict\ dress code. I would see the front office staff walk right past girls wearing booty shorts without saying anything! Other than that, if you're here for the performing arts program, go for it! The academic team is wonderful and the performing arts teachers were really cool. The performing arts program is amazing. The visual arts program-- not so much. So, please don't waste your time here if you plan on becoming an visual artist.
