My son is in the special day class as well as a couple mainstream classes and I'm really happy with…read morethe experience. Mrs. Sherfey is an amazing teacher, along with Mr. Hacker. Mr. Hacker quickly gets back to me whenever I have a question about something and is quick to get back to me when it comes to things going on in the classroom. My youngest son is in Mrs. Weatherford's Kindergarten class and she is a delight. She is extremely helpful and the kids love her. My son talks about her all the time and can't wait to go to school every day. Mrs. Silva, the principal, is also heavily involved in the school and I don't think I've met a principal (other than Mr. Handley at Vista Grande!) who is so involved with the students. She wants the best for them and works extremely hard. I also appreciate the office staff. My youngest was having trouble with learning letter sounds when he started Kindergarten and one of the staff took the kids who were having trouble and did a remedial type program and he learned his letter sounds within just a couple weeks with Mrs. Ochee (I think that's how it's spelled, sorry if it isn't). I'd definitely recommend Naranca for anyone living in the area that wants their child at a quality school that has caring teachers.

The teachers I interacted with showed so much love for their kids. What a pleasure to go back to childhood years for a few hours. Lexington is a very diverse school, with kids of many countries or origin and ethnicities. I value the work of the teachers to deal with so much diversity and cultural differences. The classrooms are so nicely decorated and personalized.

When I returned to the office, I found my daughter fainting and crying, completely overwhelmed because of this school's cruel and broken system. She was constantly bullied, and the teachers ignored it entirely. Miss Hoy targeted my child, treated her unfairly, and turned the entire class against her, creating such a hostile environment that my daughter suffered a panic attack. Mr. Henderson failed to step in or protect her in any way. The nurses were negligent and careless. My daughter is diabetic, yet they forced her to miss a once only school activity just to drink three bottles of water. These games only happen once, and she missed the entire game, which left her devastated. The school itself is dirty, poorly maintained, and feels unsafe. This place left my child traumatized. Worst school ever. The staff are unprofessional, irresponsible, and should not be working with children. This school should be shut down and replaced with people who actually care about students' health and safety. weird ass school man. dont bring ur kids here

The teachers and staff truly go above and beyond to create an environment where each child feels seen, valued, and encouraged to grow. We currently have three children at the school, and each of them has had such a positive and unique experience. The balance between strong academics and character development is something we deeply appreciate. It's clear that the school is focused on nurturing the whole child, building confidence, kindness, and a genuine love for learning. One of the highlights for our family has been the musical program. Our daughters have been involved in the school musical, and it has been such a meaningful experience for them. Not only have they grown in confidence and creativity, but they've also formed friendships across different grade levels, which has been so special to see. The sense of community that comes from these programs is truly something unique. We couldn't be happier with our experience and feel lucky every day to be part of this amazing school. It's a place where children are encouraged to thrive, friendships flourish, and families feel genuinely connected.

I have only GREAT things to say about Mt. Helix Academy!!…read more My little 3rd grader has THRIVED at this school. Known to be very shy and often wouldn't participate in class, we were desperate. There wasn't ever any trouble, just no willingness to be part of school functions, class projects, and we were about to succumb to the idea that was just the way it was. No joy for school or even extra-curricular activities. Well... these teachers did amazing things!! My child is like a whole new kid. The small class sizes helped them focus on my child's needs, and the care the teachers showed made such a difference. Now my child loves school, can't wait to "try" math (it can still be hard) and is in the school play! I would have never thought this could happen. I was just looking for a place where a child could feel welcome and loved, and, oh yeah - learn. I am so very thankful that we took a chance on Mt. Helix Academy. I can't recommend them enough!
