Personalized tutoring available. The Head of the school Mr. Jim Zwers, Dean Sikica Feldman, Elly Lago and the rest of the Staff go beyond the ordinary to make sure all students are happy, learning and having the best school experience ever. The school is very supportive of the personal goals of each student, guiding them in that direction so they can accomplish their goals. My granddaughters have learned not only academics but social skills and athletic training with the Knights cheerleading team. The holistic approach to education of CAI is brilliant preparing these students for life becoming the best version of themselves, ready to be successful in our society and contributing as a member of a group. I highly recommend this school.

A-OK. My daughter…read morewent to this school, I personally liked it but they could not really help my daughter with her education much, despite them claiming they Use Advanced Study technology on their curriculum. At times when My wife was leaving a message at the school she would not ever get a call back, Seemed as if you are not there talking to them eye to eye, There would not serve. I liked the play ground area, For a private school I give this place a 4 star. The only main draw back is, most of the children really do not finish high school here, they go to other places instead.

Let me start by saying to anyone who is considering investing in their child's education that there…read moreis no such thing as "the perfect school". That said my wife and I spent a lot of time searching options and found Skycrest to be the perfect fit for us and our kids. I must say that SCS checks many boxes when considering a private school and needs to be on the list for consideration. We have had 3 of our kids attend and can say it was an excellent experience. Were there some bumps along the way? Yes. However, the school's administration is quick to take corrective action and working to improve and correct. That is all we (as parents) can ask for. The teachers we found to be caring and bright. The sports program is the best in the Tampa Bay area. And the facilities are always improving. I would highly recommend SCS, they will get your child ready for high school and life in general.

Teachers are kind, but the uniform and dress code is absurd. Every five seconds, there is a teacher…read morecommenting on your hair, uniform, or even face. Sometimes, it seems they care more about dress code than the students' education. You shouldn't feel insecure every time you wear the uniforms. No fake nails, no mascara unless you're in 8th grade, maximum of 3 braclets (including hair ties), and you are not allowed to have more than 1 ear piercing. Let girls be girls. It feels like there are rules just to have rules and to seem strict. They also banned perfume and strong cologne. You are only allowed to go to your locker 4 times a day (including before and after school). They don't allow bringing food into school for lunch or breakfast ( including drinks). Kids shouldn't feel sexualized every time they put on a school uniform. Kids are starting to stop dressing out because of how strict the dress code is. The only things you can wear are a 6 inch shorts, sweatpants, and baggy jeans. Another thing is that they have useless classes. Technology shouldn't be a comp class and a normal class as well. Kids shouldn't feel stressed out because of a class that won't matter to them in 5 years. The bathroom rules are also strict, 1 student at a time. The teachers force you to use a planner, and they have to sign it every time you use the restroom, and you have to sign out on a sheet by the door as well. I feel like that is kind of extra giving that the bathroom is down the hall. The bathrooms don't have feminine products in the lady's room, which I feel is necessary. They don't have dividers in between the urinals in the boys' restroom, which is an invasion of privacy. You are not allowed to change for PE. Your shirt has to be tightly tucked in, and if it is not, you get a referral. If a boys hair touches their eyebrows, they have to get it cut within a week after the warning, or it leads with a demerit. Do you want every boy to have a buzzcut?! Overall, the education isn't bad. Just please let kids be kids. Not everyone is going to want to dress and look to your standards. Sorry to break it to you. I want students to feel comfortable in their school, if that means feminine products in the lady's room, or dividers between the urinals in the boys' room. Please take this into account and change some of the strict rules.

While Countryside…read moreChristian Academy presents itself as a supportive environment, our experience was defined by academic neglect and a complete lack of accountability from the staff. Subpar Education The curriculum is shockingly weak. The school seems to prioritize busy work over actual learning, leaving students ill-prepared for future academic challenges. We found the coursework outdated and noticed a significant gap between the high grades being handed out and our child's actual grasp of the material. It feels less like an educational institution and more like they are just passing kids through the system. Unprofessional Staff and Poor Problem-Solving The biggest issue, however, is the faculty. When we approached teachers and administration with concerns, we were met with indifference and deflection. Problems are not solved here; they are ignored. Whether it was an academic struggle or a classroom conflict, the staff consistently failed to take action, often leaving emails unanswered or making empty promises that never led to change. Final Verdict There is a total lack of transparency and leadership at this school. If you want an environment where your child is challenged academically and supported by staff who actually care about resolving issues, CCA is not the place. We deeply regret the time our child spent here and strongly suggest finding a school that actually values its students' growth.
