Even though this is the very first year the program is in session, the Pre-K team has been absolutely incredible. The teachers are everything a mom could hope for: caring, loving, and nurturing. They make every student feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. Their communication with parents has been wonderful, and I always feel informed. Even after just a short time, I can already see how much my child is thriving and I know they will be more than ready for kindergarten. I'm so grateful for this amazing program and highly recommend Legacy Traditional West Surprise to any family considering Pre-K!

They have great structure and routine for the students, I believe it helps them thrive especially in a school that is advanced with challenging material, but I know it will truly set them up to be successful adults. I have loved all their teachers! Whenever I have concerns I've always felt heard. I'm also thankful for the driveline, I know it can get crazy at times, but is so safe compared to other schools! They constantly have fun events and things for the kids to do. They are great at communication too, I rather get a bunch of emails everyday because I also get busy so I can be up to date on what's happening/book reports/poems/drills/dress down days/parent square/anything and everything! I really am so thankful for the school and the staff!

Our child is a transfer student from one of the Dysart schools. I was apprehensive about…read moretransferring him, but after the progress made, I have never regretted making this move. My child has progressed from being just an average student to reading 2 grade levels above the rest of the class. They are doing more complex math and science than at the Dysart schools. They also have a lot more FUN! They have field trips, assemblies, and field day. The school we came from didn't have any of those things. School has to be a well-rounded adventure or the kids will just become drones. Most of the teachers are very nice. There are always exceptions, but where isn't there the same issue? The principal and asst are very approachable and are very interested in making Carden the best it can be. Carden is a Performing Plus school as well. If you like the idea of smaller classrooms, student based learning, and fun opportunities for your child, come to Carden.

My son has had the WORST experience here at Calibre academy. If you are concerned about your child…read morebeing in a safe environment this is NOT the school to attend. My child was released to someone who could have possibly been a complete stranger. NO ONE CHECKED ID, the individual who I had pick my child up from that school went to the office and the front office receptionist sent this individual directly to where my child was. The receptionist did NOT check ID & when it was time to grab him from the teacher they too just sent him off without even speaking or asking for Identification. Another incident had transpired where another student was touching my child inappropriately & when it came to time speak with the teacher she WAS AWARE of the incident but FAILED to INFORM ME ! I am not only concerned about my child but I am also concerned about the other student as well as that parent should be aware and informed of the information ! The teacher made it a point to MESSAGED ME AND INFORM ME OF OTHER THINGS but not mention what was MOST IMPORTANT. NOT ONLY did these terrible incidents happen but my son had been here in this school for 6 months & his main teacher still DID NOT know his name but would address him as someone else . FINALLY each time I would address my issues of concern the teacher and both principal and assistant principal were VERY CALLOUS . NO apology NO concern NO EMPATHY ... NOTHING !! Not to MENTION ALL INCIDENTS THIS SCHOOL IS VERY PREJUDICE!!!!!!

This has been my experience with my kids over the last 5 years and they have all gotten worse over…read moretime. I have 2 students currently attending and 1 that graduated and it's happened to all in some form or another so I know it's not a coincidence. I pick them up everyday at the gates and hear a few other parents complaining about some of the same issues and I've also witnessed some of the staff's behavior. The teachers (several) Don't respond to messages When students try to speak to them requesting information or clarification on assignments they are told to go sit down or are ignored completely. The teachers also take a long time to grade papers and enter them. Why isn't this your job? Why does it take weeks to grade work? They play favorites and once a student has a problem all of a sudden all the teachers have a problem with the student making them feel uncomfortable, not valuable and bullied. At no time should any teacher in any grade level be discussing their political views, what other staff members (or anyone) they are dating or their sexual preferences. Why do the students need to know their teacher was married, had kids and then turned gay? This information does not need to be shared with the students. The 7th grade math, ELA and social studies teachers are the worst's Cafeteria ladies One in particular seems to think she is a police officer and telling students their lunch from home is bad for them? Do you see what your breakfast is not to mention pizza? Read something in the Surprise facebook group how a child was given a detention for bringing a Twinkie? How about the fact they run out of food by time the last classes get through the line. Other students There is bullying plain and simple and nothing is done about it. Physical and mental bullying. There is race bullying as well and horrible sexual comments that come out of students mouths towards each other Coaches Again here we go with favorites. Most of these coaches don't respond to messages unless your kid is number 1 on the team. They have their favorites and if your kid isn't that good then they don't get played. If that's the case then don't have them on the team. Totally a waste of money and time at practice. You know the effects that has on them? The principal First, I'm not defending my kids however I have one who got into trouble with 2 other students and the principal told my kid to tell the truth and you won't get into trouble. My kid told the truth and got suspended. Congratulations that just makes them not have respect for authority figures and teaches them not to trust. I'm so happy my kid used their head and turned on the recording on their phone in their pocket to record the conversation. When I was first told about it I was in disbelief until I heard the recording. And those were her exact words. The other 2 kids involved told myself and their parents the same thing, tell the truth and you won't get into trouble and they were suspended as well. Shame on you Mrs Wolford how dare you betray a child's trust The assistant Principal All you will hear from her is I'm on the teachers side. Dress code Here's another example of favoritism. Let's start with the girls skirt length. I've seen some of the girls over and over again with skirts that are entirely too short and not according to dress code regulations and also see them in leggings and jeggings. Hair? Definitely not in compliance especially the boys. Never has been for this school. This school is horrible and needs to be investigated. They don't want students on their phone at breakfast or recess but yet they do it. Whatever happened to lead by setting an example? Some of these students get no moral boosters at all. Same kids always praised and picked for things that make the school look good just like there is another group that are ALWAYS targeted and scrutinized over the tiniest of things. Heaven to bid you have a yahoo email address because it doesn't really work well with Dysart tech. Do not send your children there. We are changing schools and strongly considering going to the district with our concerns and the recordings. Glad there are other parents willing to stand with us as they have serious complaints as well.

Freedom Traditional Academy.... I used to have nothing but…read morepositive things to say about this school, but sadly that is no longer the case. My kindergartener has never been in trouble, yet the other day she accidentally ripped a page from a library book. We do not condone this behavior, and I was informed that a lunch suspension would likely be assigned, which seemed reasonable given that she damaged school property. However, I was subsequently told that my 5-year-old, who has never had any behavioral issues or been sent to the principal's office, would be receiving a three-day lunch suspension for this incident. Do I think this punishment is excessive? Absolutely! She's just 5 years old, and it seems insane that for a first-time offense of ripping a page, she would receive such harsh punishment. Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend sending your children to this school. While I believe kids should be held accountable for their mistakes, issuing a three-day suspension for a first offense is simply unacceptable. Thankfully, the school year is almost over, and both of my children will be transferring to a different school.
