Can I just say how much I love our school! Spencer attends Reagan Academy and I. Simply. Love. It! I love the structure. I love the staff. I love the things he has learned. I love the building. I love the push they have for parents to get involved. I love it all!
We receive newsletters every week (and some during the summer) and we just received one today. I love the push they have to always improve and be better. Here’s a little snippet:
Assessment Results Show Enormous Gains | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
During our frequent visits to classrooms last year we quickly noticed that the instruction taking place was clearly phenomenal. We have recently received preliminary scores from our end of the year testing that confirms what we saw early on. Reagan Academy was part of a select group of charters and districts nationwide that were asked by the U.S. Department of Education to participate in a special “blended” test that measures student progress as well as proficiency at the end of the year. Gains by Reagan students were 67 percent higher compared to the other schools nationwide in Math (Our 7th and 8th Grade Math was 120 percent higher) and 22 percent higher in Language Arts. Many congratulations to our students and parents and a tremendous “Thank you” to our amazing teachers. You could not find such amazing teachers anywhere else.

Steve and I could not be happier with the experience we have had so far with Reagan Academy and are SO glad there are programs like charter schools out there.
Simply. Love. It!
