I just read some of the reviews for Birmingham and I beg you to take these reviews with "a grain of…read moresalt". Many of the reviewers sound bitter and want someone to blame for their lack of discipline. If you want to be successful at Birmingham, you CAN be successful at Birmingham, period. The simple facts are these: #1 The campus is beautiful (BIG but beautiful). The groundskeepers and the students take good care of "their home". There are new covered eating areas, new Amazing murals on the walls "Patriot Pride" and if there is a bit of "tagging", it's removed immediately. #2 High security. They installed hundreds of cameras recording all activities on campus. These recordings have been used to prosecute wrong doing. If a student is doing something wrong, security is dispatched immediately. Most students complain about too many security guards yelling at them to get to class! #3 Teachers who push their students to succeed and genuinely care about their students. Many teachers offer many hours of extra tutoring time if students need it. #4 Every sport, club, music, theater, and art class is offered at Birmingham. The sports teams are amazing! The band program, choir program, and theater programs win numerous awards and produce many successful concerts/shows. There are many visual arts programs including drawing, photography, digital imaging and even ceramics. # 5 SLC's (Small Learning Communities) that really tailor to your child's interests and goals. #6 Mr. Parks is a great principal! The staff will help you if you ask. I've seen many schools and most are not as organized and committed to excellence as Birmingham Community Charter High School. Can your child have issues if they go there? Maybe. As a parent, YOU need to check up on your child. You can go online and check your students progress on the Aries computer grading system.You the parent can see if your child "ditched" a class (which isn't hard to do with a population over 3,000 if a kid wants to do that) by looking on the system or calling the school. Don't wait for the school to inform you. Most students (and parents) who complain about Birmingham, are the ones who complain about everything! I know it's not the "Braves" anymore, it's the "Patriots" now---get over it already!! Did I mention how good the food is there now!?!?

I went to this school for middle school and high school and i could have not asked for a better…read moreexperience. Because it is such a small student body the teacher, admin and student relationship is a very strong one. The teachers do their best to make sure the students learn the material and most importantly that they understand the material. The teachers are there not just for educational presupposes but they really do care about their student and want to see them succeed, they are willing to stay after class and talk to a student about anything they need help with whether that be a school thing or not, they are there to make sure that their students are in the right mind set to keep in the right track for them to succeed. Their building is not built to be a school but some how they have made accommodation and made some what functional for it to be a school. The first thing you see when you walk in is their classroom that is the heart of the school. To your left is the main office and to your right is the hallway into the school. The hallways are a little small for the size of their student body. The over view of the school is too small buildings with orange an blue floors. When you first walk in to the building it has a very unique smell because every classroom has their own smell. This is because almost every teacher has their own classroom. For example two tears ago a teacher there had a glade plug in that smelled like a man colon. Then the hallway started to smell like that and over time it started to clash with other scents which gives the whole school its own scent. My only complaint about this school is their lunch food. They don't make the lunch food there, they have someone cater. Something are really good, the flavors are amazing for example, they used to have a chicken tostada salad that was amazing. The tostada was nice and chunky, and the beans had just the right amount of salt and the chicken was well made. But then they have lunch like their spaghetti and meat sauce. That was one of the lunches I could not stand when i was at this school. The pasta and the meat sauce had no flavor to it. It tasted as if it had no salt or any kind of flavor in it. Other than just this complaint , they are a great school. If you are looking for a school that holds their students to a high standard and is going to help them have a bright future please check this school out they will not disappoint.

I heard that it was a large and thriving school before the pandemic and it is now growing, but organically. But currently, the classroom size is about 6 or 8 kids in my son's class, it has room to grow. The timbre of the theory of the school is to develop the child with wonder, curiosity, desire, and the confidence to learn and create, and then they could pursue the facts to learn. In this world of technology changing everything exponentially, some educators wonder if they should drill the children with facts and figures when computers will be providing all of that. These educators seem to think that the children who will succeed in the future are those who think and create. My son likes this school. He was recently diagnosed with ADHD, and the instructors are continuously learning and growing to work with him. And the biggest thing they seem to be teaching are social skills. This school currently runs from pre-k to 5th, and they are in talks about going up to 6th grade.
