Students are constantly challenging themselves through various rigorous courses, such as Honors, AP, and IB classes. Everyone seems to push themselves for the college credits and their GPA. This seems to create a very competitive environment in the school, pressuring other students to do the same (me included). Despite this, there are very nice teachers and the school from my experience. There are many classes and electives provided on campus, allowing freedom and flexibility.

With my three children attending (one having had AWEFUL experiences in public school before being identified as twice gifted), they were able to freely explore their intellectual abilities and create solid lifelong friendships. All organizations have growing pains and our school may not be perfect for your student… that is an opportunity for the parent to find the right place where their student flourishes! The Scholars’ Academy lets kids be kids, have fun and learn at their speed. Being at SA is like a trip to the United Nations of Children. Our diversity is broad.

My name is Jia and I’m an 8th grader at Pleasant Knoll Middle School. I think my school is wonderful for the most part. We have a really great staff as well as facilities such as the computer lab and the library! However, I wish there was more diversity. As you can probably imagine, there also is very little culture and I can’t really express mine. As a South Asian, I think diversity is really important and should be valued. Additionally, our school puts most of its emphasis on sports. The academic as well as the theater, music and art programs don’t get as much funding or materials. I feel as though athletics, academics, and the arts are all equally important and should be treated that way!

They empower me to take ownership of my learning. In terms of improvements, I would enjoy seeing more school-wide activities that unite students across grades.
