    Very nice school, teachers, and staff. Classes are small and each student gets individualized…read moreattention.

    When I started my internship at Humanex Academy, it started out as just an internship that was…read morerequired to earn my master's degree in clinical psychology. However, after being here for just a few days, I quickly realized that I just joined a community that would shape my career forever. From the postcards that teachers are able to write students just to give them a little boost for the day to the amazing art projects that students are supported in making, Humanex knows how to impact every student that attends. As the clinical intern, I check in with students who are needing a little extra support as well as work with students who need help navigating relationships with peers and teachers. Adolescence is arguably the most critical period in a person's life. During this time, adolescents are learning skills that are necessary for higher education or work, psychological autonomy, forming close friendships, and developing a sense of self identity. This time can be a really exciting and challenging time because they are experiencing physical, cognitive, and social changes. Between Mrs. Cahill, the principal, and Dr. Tom Welch, the clinical psychologist, Humanex is very accommodating to those changes and challenges that are presented during this time. They understand that the stimulation and stress that is presented at public schools are not a good match for everyone, and they put a great deal of effort into making Humanex stand out compared to its larger counterparts. During my experience at Humanex Academy, I have learned about the importance of confidence. Confidence is often formed and solidified during adolescence. I am happy that I have been able to aid in the development of confidence for many different students as well as been able to learn about how a compassion and caring can go a long way when working with adolescents.

    I do not understand the one star review. This is an amazing place! After a lot of research, our…read moreclose friends moved cross country so that their child could attend Havern. They talk non-stop about how grateful they are for this school and how transformative it has been for their child. Their child did not like school and did not play with other kids their age - they were timid and frightened. Now their child loves school and is a social butterfly - finding friends in their age group and beyond. There child has complained that they don't want the school year to end because they want to keep going to Havern every day. We are supporters of the school because the love and dedication given to each child is who attends is easy to see. If a child is having challenges, they respond right away by trying different teaching modalities or a different teacher until they find the right fit for that child. I've never seen that kind of responsiveness from a school. Do not let the lack of reviews here fool you - there is a reason families move from other states, cross country, or drive over an hour each way to go to Havern. I think most families, like our friends, are private and want to protect their child's privacy, which is why there are so few reviews here.

    Do not send your child here! The school and staff are pretty on the outside, but are rotten on the…read moreinside. They say all the right things, but what teaching goes on is something else. I watched unhappy parents taking their children out of the school in the middle of the school year. Beware!

    This school requires a very specific person to enjoy it. It's 7th-12th and in 7th grade those who…read morewent to Denison will already have friends there and won't really branch out until around the end of the year leaving those who did not go to Denison sometimes feel left out. The teachers tend to be republican along with many of the students however very few teachers make their views known to students besides the occasional slip up. The teachers for 7th and 8th are not the best but after that it tends to get better. One problem some might have is the closed campus. While there being a closed campus on its own is not bad the food there isn't good at all. Your only option to get a good meal is to make your own lunch and bring it to school but that isn't always an option. Also if you want to be able to spend time with your child then don't send them to develyn as the work load is over the top with the principal saying that 3 hours of homework should be the norm. Overall, if your child does not cope with stress well do not send them here. In the end I don't think that this school is right for most people.

Everyone is basically new in 7th so it's easier to make friends for kids. Very high standards academically with the highest act scores in the state.

    Our child is absolutely THRIVING at Mackintosh and has become a more confident person since…read morestarting at Mack over a year ago. Like many kids, my son was apprehensive about changing schools, but within a month he realized that he was where he belonged, and now he tries to spend every extra minute he can at school attending before or after school clubs. The International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum is an excellent basis for in-depth education and exploration, but the true strength of Mackintosh is the amazing teaching faculty and staff. All of the teachers seem to love their jobs and their students and with the low student/teacher ratios, the teachers truly know the kids and how to elicit their best thinking and work. Like all learners, gifted students have strengths and weaknesses, and the teachers are able to offer broad enrichment to support a student's strengths as well as support and scaffolding for a student's challenge areas. They are able to support a learner who may be three years ahead in math, but who finds writing a struggle. The teachers are willing to differentiate instruction and assignments and meet students where they are and gently push them to grow and believe in their abilities. Some more things that I love about the school: amazing grade-level theatrical performances, multi-day nature-based field trips for the older grades, outside lunch as weather allows, and a well-rounded curriculum that includes PE every day, plus either performing or visual arts every day and a period every day that is split between Spanish some days and design others. I wish more kids could experience a Mackintosh education. I saw some comments about bullying. I am not personally aware of any bullying at the school, and I haven't had any parents share any bullying experiences with me. Also, I haven't experienced any "cliques" among the parents. Everyone seems very nice and genuine. If you have a gifted learner who would benefit from a warm, enriching, education, we strongly recommend that you consider Mackintosh Academy.

    My daughter went to Mackintosh. I believe Mackintosh was instrumental in her development. They…read morereally work hard on teaching students the why, the how, and they emphasize on "critical thinking" , evaluating arguments, and analyzing information (areas other schools don't have time or resources for) We also were lucky the school created a "heritage Spanish" class for a few kids like my daughter who were raised bilingual. Maria Cardona was in charge of creating from scratch the curriculum for a handful of kids for a few years. My daughter improved in her writing and reading comprehension a lot. The topics covered during all those years touched on many areas so I'm very appreciative of Maria Cardona's creative curriculum and patience throughout those years. We also had very good experiences with all classes, from advanced math, to art, and everything in between. I'm sure that will be key for my daughter's high school and college future
