The First Academy has been instrumental at laying a firm foundation for my child. I appreciated the attention they were able to give my child (and family) both spiritually and academically. They truly care about the whole child. We were able to see our child blossom into a leader who will make an...

I was so excited about this school for my son. The coordinator was actually a sales person. Marketing big time. We bought into it.
My son was treated horrible at this school. He was in Kindergarten . I was treated the same way ...horrible. Please think twice about putting your child at this school.

I love TFA. We gave public school a try for a couple of years when we first moved to Orlando. We thought since they were A rated schools in Dr. Phillips that we were going to be fine. Although they were great schools, our son was struggling with boredom. He wasn't being challenged at all. Not to men...

It s pretty good I guess. The teachers are nice and want you to do your best. It s a good school but I feel like people make TFA seem like a super great school when really it s just like any other private school academically and environmentally. It s a bit overrated. The majority of people here have...

I attended The Classical School, and I honestly must say that this is the best school I have ever attended. There are no discipline issues here, the students are very courteous here, and teachers are professional. I could go on forever maybe, but I strongly recommend The First Academy and The Classi...

Excellent school - you get what you pay for. Easily our top choice in central Florida. Very good administration, excellent teachers and staff, top notch academics and extra curricular activities. Couldn't be happier! Yes it's expensive but the return on investment is very high. Worth every penny!

The First Academy is a wonderful school. The warm and loving atmosphere at TFA has been so welcoming. The teachers are fantastic and eager to see your child succeed by offering assistance and help when needed. I would encourage anyone considering a private school to call TFA and set up a tour and...

It is a joy to be a part of The First Academy. The students are extremely polite and well-mannered, and the faculty and staff go above and beyond to prepare students academically, socially and spiritually to go out into the world.

The teachers are awesome! Our daughter attended for 6 years! I am happy to pull her out. I should have pulled her out years ago. The school has so many favorites that run the school. Athletics needs an overhaul and the lack of Attention to kids struggling is shameful.

Please consider somewhere else. Leadership is lacking and definitely not worth the price. Staff and students are mass exiting. Admin doesn t cares what actually goes on at the school as long as they get their over inflated paychecks. After 6 years we pulled our student. Do yourself a favor and fin...

Considering that as a church there should always be the desire to help others, limiting the amount of students able to attend with a scholarship is very disappointing.

We have five children at The First Academy, one in the Upper School, one in the Middle School and three in the Lower School. I can truly say that TFA is a family. They treat each child as a precious gift from the Lord, with unique skills and abilities. I love that on one campus, in one afternoon, I ...

This is an amazing school. I've been going to this school for 4 years and I have learned so much. They have taught me so much about character and how to live a better life. If I were you and I had kids, I wouldn't hesitate to put my kids into The First Academy.

This school sounds like a great school. However, I am a bit disappointed that the tuition is so high to be located in the area it is located in. It's sad to know that this great school is in our community but the children who live in the community can't afford to attend. My daughter is highly intell...

My children attended The First Academy for five years. My oldest graduated from TFA with a 4.3 GPA and failed in his first year of college. TFA has excellent, kind teachers, but there is a tremendous amount of grace extended to those that are slow in turning things in or not preparing for tests. ...

The teachers go above and beyond to really know the students. From attending outside sporting events to baptisms. They are there.
