Review of Barat Academy

Having two daughters currently enrolled in Barat, I wish they taught 4th grade so I could enroll my younger daughter as well. The teachers and administrators work closely with parents and students to give each child a truly individualized and challenging education.
They strive to get to know their students and are able to support them in a way that brings the best out in them, both socially and academically.

I was blown away by the progress my 16 year old made as a new student and Sophomore last year. She had a difficult time adjusting at first, but the staff at Barat went above and beyond to create an environment she could thrive in. By the end of the year, she had discovered some hidden talents, developed more specific career goals and her self-esteem grew exponentially. She made friendships with some great students who supported her throughout the school year as well.

Barat is excellent when it comes to using Google, Zoom and email to communicate with parents and students. They truly exceeded our expectations when schools closed for quarentine. They kept my daughter engaged, busy, and emphasized socialization with other students as well.

They have continued to keep parents and students informed throughout this uncertain time, even into the summer months. The level of preparation and professionalism they have shown has truly given us the peace of mind that our daughters will be safe and well cared for this coming fall. Wether it be in the classroom or virtually, I have no doubt that the teachers and administrators will work hard to ensure that my children receive the best education possible.
