I wouldn't even give this charter…

I wouldn't even give this charter school 1 star but unfortunately I had to in order to post my review! Our first time trying a charter school over public led to the WORST experience for myself and my daughter. First off, more than likely they will lie to you on the tour like they did to me to increase the number of students for enrollment purposes. I was promised small classroom sizes during the initial tour and Teacher Assistants to assist with instruction. Instead my daughter was dealing with crowded classrooms with 28 or more students and no help. She couldn't ask the Teachers for help because they were too overwhelmed and busy yelling at the students to be quiet. Their grading system is horrible! Your child can be at an A on Monday and then a F by Wednesday with NO communication from the Teacher because they "don't have time to reach out to parents they teach over 70 students" is exactly what was told to me. They will tell you to rely on the parent portal which doesn't even include all of the graded assignments not to mention not all parents have access to a computer or smartphone. They will either refuse conferences or push you off for weeks, until "they have the time to meet with you". Maybe it's because the Teachers aren't licensed is why they are unprofessional and don't care about each student learning and being successful. The Principal will more than likely ignore your concerns if you reach out to her so you can forget speaking with admin. I would not advise this charter school to ANY parent unless you want your child to be left behind to fail!

Needs work

Teachers change which disrupt students learning and developing rountines they can count on. School also has poor communication with parents. My child was scheduled for after school tutoring with my permission or knowledge until after the fact. Teachers are not well trained on how to deal with disruptive behavior.

I am so thankful that she had this time there, Our children have a tough road ahead and PrfeEminent does its part in helping them to prepare. I will miss the wonderful staff who really rise to the challenge to educate our youth. YES, I TELL ANYONE TO CONSIDER PREEMINENT !

The teachers at PreEminent are great. They go above and beyond to make sure your child succeeds. Administrative staff on the other hand have ALOT of work to do. They must always keep in mind that their attitude reflects how people view the school. LOTS OF WORK TO DO!!!!!!

Acceptable- no major issues

The school has great staff. I can see that they are concerned and care about the academic success and character enhancement of each child. I am a little concerned with the behaviors that I've witnessed from some of the students and hope that it was isolated to just those particular instances. In those case, I guess it is up to the parents to be more involved in helping to build character.
