    Ascend prioritizes making its numbers and data look good over creating a great learning environment…read morefor children. While I do not feel this is necessarily maliciously intended, the fact that the school treats its teachers as disposable (one classroom had 6 teachers cycle out over the year) and only sees students through the scores they get on their tests was greatly upsetting to me. When I interviewed for Ascend, I was upfront that I had not taught in a classroom. I asked to be an associate teacher working under another teacher and to have regular training. They agreed to this, but when the time came, I taught 6 classes with 25 - 30 five to seven year olds in each. I was in charge of teaching science, a subject I had never taught, and implementing a curriculum based on Ascends' expectations. Moreover, I was joining in January, replacing another teacher. The training was minimal and by the time I understood what I was supposed to be doing at Ascend, they were already reviewing who they wanted to return for next year. I was not surprised or exceptionally upset when they told me I was not being asked back, but the way they treated teachers far more skilled than I was, was incredibly disheartening. Overall, I am reviewing Ascend because their style of education isn't something most people would want. They advertise "joy" and "boundless choice" but they do not lead their school that way.

    Parents, please take this warning seriously and investigate this school thoroughly before enrolling…read moreyour child. My child attended this school and did not leave as the same child who entered. The emotional impact has been profound, and some of the changes have felt irreversible. fearful, anxious, self loathing. His fear of school, anxiety, withdrawal, nightmares, aggression, loss of confidence, and overall regression. As a parent, there is nothing more horrifying than realizing that a place you trusted with your child may contributed to lasting harm. During pickups, I personally witnessed and overheard interactions between school leaders and teachers that I found tense, hostile, and deeply inappropriate. The strain was not subtle. atmosphere is clearly emotionally unsafe and made me seriously question what children might be witnessing or experiencing when parents are not present. A child in my kids class was committing during a test day and forced to continue through the test by a principal named Tanika Archer. Jamila Kelly. Diana Tate This is the current lead team. I am deeply disappointed When educators appear intimidated, say they feel unsupported, and are routinely treated with hostility, parents should be concerned about how that pressure affects the entire school environment! these are our babies. Children absorb the tension around them. Based on what I witnessed and the changes I observed in my own child, I no longer feel confident that this was a healthy or nurturing place for students. I was also alarmed that I could not find the normal review history for the school's locations on Google. Parents deserve accessible, transparent feedback when making decisions about where to place their children. The absence of that transparency raised another serious red flag for me. I wish I had known then what I know now. Please speak directly with current and former families, ask detailed questions about staff turnover, discipline practices, leadership conduct, and student emotional safety, and pay close attention to any changes in your child. Do not dismiss sudden fear, withdrawal, regression, or distress. I entrusted this school with my child. I will live with that decision and its consequences for a very long time.
