Review of Strive Collegiate Academy

Communication amongst staff is terrible. Structure...

Communication amongst staff is terrible. Structure of the school is very unorganized. Academically my kid was bored same material from the pervious school but a lesser grade. Took my child s purse even after she told them she had her emergency inhaler in there and a doctors note. I had to contact the principal so the other teachers would allow her to carry it. Power went out, school was a suana my child asked to call home she was told no sit there like everyone else by one teacher. Even after notes from the doctor s office were sent regarding her asthma. She finally asked another teacher and he allowed her to use his cell phone. I never received my child s uniforms I ordered 2 months before school started & I withdrew my kid in this month & still haven t received them. The uniform company takes your money but never responds after purchase. I emailed the principal she said she was suppose to contact them but who knows she never got back with me. Only had one teacher who would be consistent with communication and check emails. My kid was sent to detention by mistake. Staff apologized to me but no one really took blame basically blamed it on my kid for doing what she was instructed to you. It s a list of reasons why your child shouldn t go to this school. I should have listened to all the parents who told me it was a bad idea to enroll my child. Staff is super friendly on the tours and orientation that s an illusion. Teachers have flat out not respond to my child when she either asked a question or was trying to communicate. They have no respect for the children. If you have a child with disciplinary problems this is the perfect school. The staff treats every kid as if they are a disciplinary problem. My respectable ,honor roll, happy ,enthused about school ,who never got in any trouble child started to hate school after one month in Strive. Even though I now pay a monthly tuition for her to go to school, I m thankful she s no longer in that situation.
