    We love the entrepreneurial design magnet and the diversity of this school! The teachers are so…read moreengaged with the kids and families, the PTA is very strong and involved, and my children are thriving at Conn. I cannot say enough great things about this school.

    I had to write this review when, after repeated attempts at check-ins, I realised my kids' school…read morewasn't even listed on Yelp as an elementary school! I believe the school was named for Emma Conn, but for the past several years the school has been the ONLY magnet school in Wake County offering the Active Learning and Technology program. As a parent, obviously I put a lot of thought into which school I wanted my kids to attend. The recent Wake County school board controversy really made me shy away from the public schools; I knew I was interested in a magnet program. My husband and I have been looking to buy a house also, so knowing we were moving (possibly from one school district to another) was also an incentive for magnet schools- my kids would be able to attend the same school from K-5th grade! As a kid who attended 3 elementary schools myself, that really spoke to me. More importantly, I can vouch that the Conn system really works. Today, I had my kindergarten son's 3rd quarter parent-teacher conference. Prior to him enrolling in school, I was concerned, because like a lot of little boys, he had trouble sitting still, listening, being attentive for long periods of time. I don't know if it was his wonderful teacher Ms. Christie, or the syllabus that includes time for dance, drama, PE, and arts in addition to the reading/writing/arithmetic basics, but I literally nearly teared up as she laid out for us a sample of his free-period writing from 1st, 2nd, and 3rd quarter. My son has made insane progress this year, moving from a kid who was proud to know his alphabet, to a kid who can write multiple sentences without any adult input at all. The "technology" and "active" part of the curriculum aren't just buzzwords, either. Whether it's the interactive "smart tables" the school is placing in kindergarten classrooms, or that strawberry "learning module"/fundraiser they recently held (an educational trip to the berry farm followed by sales of baggies of regular and chocolate-dipped strawberries), the school not only keeps kids motivated and interested in learning, but helps parents feel involved as well. I'm a technology-minded person myself, and I HATE being sent home random slips of paper that will inevitably end up lost in my kid's bookbag or in the dredges of my car's backseat, so I also appreciate principal Diane Kearney's weekly pre-recorded phone calls full of the latest school news! Try relying on your 6-year-old for important data and you would appreciate it also! Tonight we had Kindergarten Orientation for my youngest, who will hopefully benefit from the same great teachers Jack had, but regardless will benefit from Conn's innovative magnet approach. I felt stressed at the time of choosing a school to apply for, and I felt stressed we wouldn't be chosen after submitting my application, but ever since my kids started attending Conn, I have never once been stressed about their safety, happiness, or education. That's about the highest praise I can give. Keep it up Conn!!

    Absolutely unbelievable. This school is the furthest thing from CHRISTIAN. The majority of the…read moreteachers don't teach properly and focus on the complete wrong things. The school is a mess, the rules make no sense. The way they treat the students is genuinely so embarrassing. If you want your child to feel supported or respected, look somewhere else. This school is the last place I would ever recommend. Disgusting.

    We sent my gifted black nephew to NRCA. We asked former teachers, families of students, black…read morefamilies of students and we heard negative statements concerning the African American experience here. As a teacher I asked a former NRCA teacher about it, and his words were "It is a good education, but they are not the place for black students." Despite this, we normally know how to navigate those spaces, and most teachers here are actually GREAT. However, they have a science teacher and a coach that has received several complaints for ostracizing students. It's one of the worst experiences I've ever had with an educator. I've never seen ANYTHING like it. We have spoken to administration. Other parents have spoken to administration. They head nod and continue to employ him, knowing he has actively chosen to kill the energy of the students he is called to serve. You don't have to believe me, ask about him. The responses will be the same. Parents agree but duck their heads to avoid rubbing him wrong as he takes it out on kids. I've been a teacher for 15 years and have recommended my sister remove him from this situation as I see how he has affected him. Families of players agree, but I'm okay speaking up, bc someone needs to know. Ronnie Kruger's actions are so egregious, and he alone has caused my nephew such pain, I can't believe a Christian School continues to let him behave this way and not require him to at minimum treat kids with respect and love.

    My son was accepted here before we moved to the area. I truly should've done the research before…read moreeven applying. It wasn't a good fit for him. The staff were pretty friendly when we went to tour, but the teacher giving us the tour told us that the students were "rough" & there were a lot of "bad apples" that she wouldn't want my son to be around. She told me that the school is primarily "urban" & they come from a different life. While I appreciated her "warnings", it only turned me off of their school. I definitely don't want my son getting beat up or bullied, so I left him in virtual school and withdrew him. Someone else can have his seat. Do your research before applying to this charter school.

    I see they've removed Reviews For this school On Google And it's reasons for that. I wish there…read morewas a negative star I can give. This school is awful. Their anti-bullying policy is nonexistent, and if they have one, it's not being enforced..... AT ALL. my 10 yr old daughter was being bullied the 4th day she started. She let a teacher know and was told twice to have a seat. She came home everyday fussing about how these girls are bothering her to the point one of them sprayed something on her causing her to have an outbreak. Also, there was a teacher that kept drilling her. I have never received a negative report on my daughter, so this was new to my daughter and I. After a week straight of complaining that this teacher was saying things to her that most parents don't even say to their kids, I went to the school. If there is a constant issue with my child, why am I not being notified and why is this teacher comfortable to continuously talk down to my child daily? I requested a meeting with the teacher through the dean, the counselor, and parent relations every week for 4 weeks ...... never got a meeting. Although They all are aware of the issue. Nothing was resolved. I also contacted the same group of coordinators regarding my daughter being bullied. As I was told, they have an idea who the girls are but cannot discuss discipline actions. But there was never a follow up. I had to continuously contact the school. It got so bad, my child would beg me not to drop her off, beg me to change schools, and beg me to allow her to stay home. They never even ask my child who the girls who sprayed her were. I say this. I'm was not looking for what action were being taken, but a follow up would have been nice. After 5 weeks and no one asked my child who, what, where, when, obviously there wouldn't have been nothing to follow up on if they are not aware who is who. I could have easily called the police and pressed charges on the girls, but I blame the parents and the school.... mostly the school for hoping this will blow over. There were 3 other issues going on in addition to. Long story short, I transferred my child out of the school. Best decision I could have made. I emailed the principal (who also was aware there was an issue) about my child being transferred out. I didn't even get a response. Very unprofessional, Unethical, and all the things in their handbook they want these kids to be and agree to.. this school is NOT. They tell you one thing in your face and brush it off as soon as the parent leave. Till this day my daughter asks why. She is now in therapy working through emotional distress and anxiety from the result of these incidents. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE.
