The director Dac Cederberg has incredible talent and is on par with other well-known directors such as Harold Prince. Musical director Stacy Miller really killed it and each song was beautiful and very well performed. A lot of the success of the musical can be chalked up to all the talent in the cast, pit orchestra, and techs. Emma Reiger and Abigail Ferguson were perfectly cast for their roles of Katherine Blake and Ellie Blake respectively. Their singing was like something out of American Idol and the acting worthy of an oscar. Ryne Haldeman's choreography was also stunning. From a technical standpoint, you have to give a huge hand to Technical Director Robert Stahly and the other techs. The lighting by Heidi Hansen was beautiful and provocative. The sound designed by Blaze Smith was utterly astounding. The music choices for intermission were inspiring. A few mistakes were made by a tech in sound but were not very noticeable and did not ruin the overall enjoyment. As a final word, I would like to say that the price of $12 an adult for a broadway caliber production is definitely worth it.

This is a direct reflection of the school as a whole because most likely they are only worried about their numbers. Instead of making children feel worse about themselves, especially since we toured and I did all the work to get the school the IEP and transcripts and then tell him no. Thanks Twin Peaks.

Flagstaff Academy is a charter school that I see as problematic. The math program in particular has…read morebeen an issue from the beginning and everyone in the administration knows this is true. A simple Google search will turn up research that proves that their various levels of mathematics for every grade level, discourages children in learning and creates math anxiety. When shown this research, the administration says there is nothing they can do about it because it's part of the charter. If your child is in a accelerated math group and then gets dropped to the next level down for the next year because of enrollment, etc. they will be learning the same math over again and will be bored and discouraged. When I transferred my children to public school after being years at Flagstaff Academy, my oldest, who was in accelerated math, had giant gaps missing in their math education. The teachers in the public school were not surprised they had seen this happen repeatedly from Flagstaff. My youngest child could not write more than a paragraph summation. I had to get my child extra summer writing lessons to catch up with their public school peers (who standard was riding five paragraphs). Also when we were there, not every teacher was teaching the same curriculum. The elementary had changed math curriculums so often that two of the teachers refused to switch. My kid wrote their college essay on the shock they received being moved from accelerated math at Flagstaff to public school math. I will never forgive myself. There are protections and standards in public schools that you will not find in a charter. Consider carefully your choice. My favorite part of their reply below is where they call me a liar. I would strongly suggest that you send your children to a public school that doesn't consider themselves a "business"

Caring, dedicated staff.

The teachers are living up to the reputation and standards we were so invested in when we moved our family here. Our kid comes home happy every day, and is getting an exceptional education with a comprehensive, holistic, and challenging approach. Most of the time at Mack, the kids are outside in a beautiful, expansive campus beneath the watchful eye of the mountains. There's a lot to love. Nothing about this year (plus) has been easy for any of us, but it's impossible to imagine ourselves and our child without Mack.

The school markets itself as a place for gifted and talented children, but it did not live up to that for us on any front. In our experience the school was poorly run and the teaching staff came across as dismissive and out of their depth, both academically and in handling our child's day-to-day needs. Basic professionalism and communication felt absent throughout. Our most serious concern was a bullying situation in our son's class that the school, in our view, failed to take seriously or handle responsibly. We felt the warning signs were ignored and the severity downplayed, and our son was left to cope largely on his own. The emotional impact on him is something we're still working through. We have also filed formal complaints with the relevant oversight bodies, which are currently under review. We did not find this to be an environment that challenges or nurtures bright children, or one where we felt our child was safe and supported. I would strongly encourage other families to look closely and ask hard questions before enrolling.

When asked for feedback -- any feedback -- on my child's school activities, I was told, "no news is good news". When I requested once again for a two-minute stand-up conversation once a week when picking up my child, I was told that if they did it for me, they had to do it for every parent. Is that such a bad thing? As a parent paying a significant amount to send a child to a private montessori, I didn't feel it an unreasonable request for a teacher to talk to me and tell me about my child's day. When dropping my child off or picking her up, I was rarely acknowledged by the staff (not even a, "Hi"). The month that I volunteered to read with the children one day a week, the two owners never greeted me, acknowledged me, or thanked me at the end for my time. Thankfully another teacher at the school recognized that I had no idea what my volunteer duties were, and showed me what I was to do. At the end of the year, I couldn't wait for school to be over. Needless to say, we won't be returning.This was by far the worst scholastic experience...ever! I would never, ever recommend Blue Mountain.

Victory at Montessori has multiple big rooms for the kids to be active in when the temperature is not good to be outside. Every week they do a bike day, water day and a sports day.
