I CAN NOT STAND THIS SCHOOL. this school is literally the worst in Camden, everyone thinks its so great until you get in. I instantly regretted my choice of this school. barely no teachers, no parking and no moneyy. i would not wish this school upon my worst enemy. wayyyy to strict and on top of that all their bathrooms are locked. this is by-far the worst school i have ever seen. All the kids hate it there. DON'T RECOMMEND.

Leap lost its sizzle a few years ago. There should be a structured disciplinary code put in place. The kids can basically get away with anything there. They need to hire teachers that teach and not a person that goes for a pay check and to gossip worse than the kids. STEP your game up LEAP!!

My daughter came to school and forgot to eat breakfast. While they were lining up she went to go get breakfast and the principal would not allow her to get breakfast because she "had all that time to chit chat". So my daughter went and the lunch ladies told her that the principal said don't give her any breakfast. This school needs some serious help. Cheap Academy

Parking is very limited and only available if you arrive 1 hour early. If you're not there an hour early to save a parking then you're left going in circles until someone else leaves. By the time you find parking you risk picking up your child late to which then you'll get charged a dollar a minute. If that wasn't enough now parents aren't allowed to cross at the crosswalk to the school. For some it is not a problem, but for others especially grandparents that cannot walk far distances, it's a burden.

If i could give it zero i would! The most unorganized immature adults ive even seen! They dint have any discipline for kids who are constantly hitting your child especially when it comes to boys hitting girls. The principle needs a different career she had no idea what she is doing. The vice principal needs to be re evaluated and checked out. To much going on in this school need to shut down!!!!

This place is very unorganized! Once they take your jackets and hoodies away, they ll place it all in a trash bag and let anybody come in and take any hoodie they want, even stealing them at the end of the day. That s how I got my hoodie stolen and I wasn t even wearing my hoodie, it was laying next to my bag. If your hoodies get stolen, good luck finding them

Leap academy have no consideration for parents or children catching the bus. I waited at my bus stop with my children along with other parents for a hour the bus never came. leap told me that our stop isn t a legal bus stop anymore after multiple days of waiting for the bus in 95 degree weather. Leap knew the bus stop changed they still gave me a bus ticket They didn t tell me anything about the bus changing until it was brought to their attention. This is something that should of been said the first day of school. I still don t know where my child stop is I left several voicemails with the lady In charge of the bus an nobody returned my phone calls. As a working mother this is really unacceptable. Leap academy is very unorganized and inconsiderate parents should know these things when they first occur not after the fact.

During Covid-19, Leap Academy has made the best attempt to deliver food and offer assistance whenever the families needed it. Leap has been a life-changing experience for my family. My children have been only in Charter Schools growing up in the city and Leap is one of the best schools they have ever attended in Camden, NJ. You could look at all the reviews and make a choice from there but just because someone had a bad experience doesn't mean that you are your child would. This is absolutely a Great School. Leap gives hope to our children to become suitable to attend school even if I moved out of the city. My children will be well prepared for their next journey, wherever we live because of the great learning. I attend College and their work is College Prep material. Thank you Leap Academy for everything you have done in the Black and Brown Community, as well as the Puerto Rican Community. Make the best decision for your children, regardless of any negative and positive comments. You should make a decision for the best school choice for your families! Both of my children LLLLOOOVVVVEEEE their School. There are opportunities for the parents as well. Also, Leap starts from pre-school all the way to High School. I don't know about you, but I would look into what this school has to offer first before any judgement. When I found out my children have been accepted to Leap, Doors started opening and I have been seeing all the talents that I have never seen in my children before. Leap brings out creativity and all the motivation in our children to become leaders in their community. Leap is #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
