So has I said I would not recommend sending your child to this school. I recommend a different private school.

The level of education provided seems different than that of a regular public or magnet school. The amount of homework given is definitely more than most, but my daughter has soared since attending school here. Her 1st Grade teacher is amazing and still checks on her even though she is no longer in her class. (I am not including her name to keep other teachers from being jealous ) The parents are active in the school as well. They recently held an event called SMACK Night where it dealt with Science and Math activities (Science and Math Activities Connecting Kids). This is not the only event that the school holds. They beautify their campus by Campus Cleanups. They have a Butterfly Garden. All of the activities get the parents and students involved with the school as well as develop pride in the school as well. Mr. Calzadilla is a great principal, and he has amazing Asst. Principals, teachers, and Support Staff as well. OH, most importantly, the school has been an A school for many years and it is a Green School as well. I can go on and on about this school simply because the school, and it's employees, have earned it! Check their website for the Magnet Application. www.airbasek8.net

They thought because she was witty and outspoken - that she would test well- After this "test" (given by someone who did not speak English well) they said they were unable to accommodate her due to various factors (space, not submitting papers on time - all lies) she was 4.. you teach them, you don't deny them and you don't stop answering the parent when they call and email to find out if "space" has opened up.. - shame on Atala. I will say the google reviews have been turned off for a reason.

If I can take my children out now, I would! No tissue, no soap,you know the basics. I AM FED UP!! I want to begin by saying that I am not homophobic. I understand that many families chose to leave the school because they were uncomfortable with their children being around a married couple who were also the owners. Others, like myself, chose to stay because we were focused on maintaining a stable and academically sound environment for our children. Those of us who remained placed our trust in the two new owners. However, after their separation, there was no communication to parents regarding a significant change that directly affects the leadership and stability of the school. While I respect that personal matters are private, when they directly impact a school community, a level of transparency is both appropriate and expected. It is especially concerning given that Maritza was not only an owner but also an educator who played an important role in the school, particularly through her work with the students in the drama department. Her presence and contribution mattered, and the absence of communication around such a major change is disappointing. Since the transition, Atala has not been the same. This raises a valid question about how a couple can separate so soon after taking on the responsibility of running a school. The changes being implemented feel disconnected from what students actually need, particularly as academic concerns continue to surface. In addition, there appears to be a pattern of decisions that reflect poor judgment. The new social media presence, for example, comes across as unprofessional and lacks the level of care and intention expected from an educational institution. Many of the changes feel irrelevant at a time when students should be the primary focus. If Colon were more personable and approachable, parents might feel more comfortable engaging in open conversations. However, interactions with her often come across as unwelcoming and, at times, dismissive. There is a noticeable sense of entitlement in both demeanor and actions, which does not foster a positive or collaborative environment for parents or staff. Professionalism is also a concern in terms of presentation and conduct on campus. From attire to interactions with families, there are instances that do not align with what is typically expected of someone in a leadership role within a school setting. Another concern is the rapid transition into a new personal relationship following the separation. While personal relationships are ultimately private, the timing raises questions about stability. There is also a strong concern that this new partner may become involved in the school in some capacity, which adds to the uncertainty many parents are already feeling. Communication overall has become increasingly difficult. Parents are frequently redirected instead of receiving clear answers. Even simple requests, such as obtaining transcripts, have become unnecessarily complicated. I was instructed to contact multiple individuals for something that was previously handled efficiently. At this point, I am simply requesting access to my child's records without added difficulty or unnecessary discussion. I also referred several parents to the school when I believed things were going well. They scheduled tours to get a feel for the environment, not to make an immediate commitment. While they shared that Ms. Consuelo was welcoming, supportive, and had a great interaction with the child, the follow-up experience raised concerns. After not hearing back, she reached out to check in on their decision. This came across as pushy and made them feel as though they were being pressured, despite only having attended a tour. They had not yet made a decision and were still exploring their options. That follow-up ultimately influenced their decision not to move forward with Atala. In my experience, this is not a typical practice, and I do not recall Erin or Consuelo previously handling tours in this manner. The overall condition and organization of the school have also declined. Cleanliness, consistency, and planning,such as the lack of communication regarding summer camp,are all areas that reflect a lack of structure and leadership. While there are staff members I genuinely appreciate, it often feels as though their ability to support students is limited under the current direction of leadership. The dynamic of the school has shifted significantly, and not in a way that benefits the students. This has been an extremely disappointing experience. I gave the school a full year in hopes that things would improve, but instead it has been marked by instability, lack of communication, and growing concern. Based on my experience, I would strongly encourage parents to evaluate this place before enrolling.

My kid was crying and when we went to pick him up the had him in a corner and was towering over him like he was an animal! Every morning he would cry and would say "she (the principal) was mean", but we discounted what he said. We feel so bad we didn't listen to our child as this place is not good. Don't be fool by the sweet words during the orientation and school visit. I mean maybe you won't have the same experience as we did, but is it worth the risk?? There are plenty of schools to take a chance on if you ask me. Needless to say we chose another school (CFA) and all of my kids are thriving and the one they said was a problem gets the role model award daily. Different school, teachers, environment, yet same kid so who's the problem. Even met other parents that left the school as well and also had a bad experience as well, so at least we know it's not just us.
