There are two distinct sides to this school, one being amazing and the other being…read moreless-than-desirable. As a teacher who worked at Pinellas Secondary School, the workplace environment was very positive. The principal and assistant principal are marvelous people. It shocked me how close I got to them and how comfortable I was with them. This is usually not the case at most schools, as principals feel the need to assert distance between them and the teaching staff as an eye roll-worthy attempt to maintain some semblance of a pseudo-hierarchy. It was the total opposite here: Mr. Hammond and Mrs. Ramdohr were very approachable, kind, helpful, and caring. The staff in general is exceedingly familial here. Employment at PSS truly felt like working alongside a community of friendly neighbors. The students are another story. I'd say parents absolutely should NOT send their children here, but they really don't have much of a choice if their child committed a serious violation. The HS students are usually pretty well-behaved and polite, since they want to transition back to their original school. The middle schoolers on the other hand are the worst children I've ever seen in my entire adult life. Not only are the hideously immature, but they are toxically hateful to boot. They fight nearly every single day, they do not respect authority at all, they steal without a second thought, and they populate 3/4 of the school. As a teacher considering working here, I'd say do yourself a favor and refuse to teach the middle schoolers. INSIST on teaching high school and you'll probably love your job. All in all, I'd absolutely come back and work at Pinellas Secondary School, provided I got to choose which students I worked with.

The team at BSA loves the students and truly invests in their future. They partner with the student's parents as they maneuver through the day-to-day growth of the students in their care. My children were well-prepared for college. The discipline they learned in their studies gave them what they needed to succeed in their later studies. All four of my students graduated high school in the top 15% of their class. (public and private) two have graduated college in the top 10%, and two are still in school. I highly recommend this school to others in the area.

I asked to speak with the director and she stated she only knows what's happening based upon reports. (She never views the classes). I asked to visit the class to see his behavior. She stated she would have to ask the owner. I asked for at least a weekly written report so that I can have documentation. She stated she doesn't know if she can get the teacher to do that. This place has no cameras and I cannot come in to view my child. I confronted them about my request only to have the asst director yell at me and terminate my child.

The teacher for the 2 year old class, Mrs. Pat, basically did this for me! My son can sing his ABCs, knows his shapes, knows his colors, can count to 12, has learned how to share and so much more! He didn't know any of this when he started. The facility is clean and they decorate for the holidays. The meals are included with the price, home-cooked and MORE than enough. The kids are good kids. You don't walk in to bad words, fighting or any of that. They all give my son a hug everyday when he leaves, and even the big kids are patient and friendly with him too. The school is equally diverse, which I love, so my son has learned to be friends with every kind of person! They have people come and take pictures that you can purchase with professional backgrounds, they have holiday parties and do really cool arts and crafts projects. The 3 and 4 year old kids are together, so my son is already literally learning everything from the VPK courses. Right now, he is learning to write letters! It's like getting two years of preparation before kindergarten instead of just one. When my son "officially" starts VPK next year, he will definitely be way ahead of the game. They have a big, fenced in play yard where my son loves to roam. They are so affordable that I almost didn't use them. I didn't trust the price. But they are truly exceptional and I am grateful I went with my gut. I am very protective of my little boy and went to several different daycares before I found this one. Thank goodness I did. Thank you A Little Kids Academy!

As soon as my kids started they had major confusion with my children's ages. And forcing my twin 2yr olds to be potty trained bc they thought they were 3yr old When they just had turned 2 right when they started. 1st issue second issue they said my kids had behavioral issues and trying to make it seem like me and my support system didn't know how to discipline my kids. Mind you at home and other peoples homes my kids don't act out. I explained to them how I discipline at home which obviously they have to follow certain rules and things which is understandable to discipline. Never have I ever heard of a toddler getting suspended from a daycare. Nope 2 of my kids did! Almost weekly and I finally got tired of signing incident reports, and asked for video footage. 1 of the reports I signed stated a toy was snatched out of my kids hand which obviously a trigger for a kid so young, so his reaction was to bite. Yes my kid is wrong I understand that completely I asked if they were sat down to explain do we not snatch and bite, no one could answer the question. Then another day comes by and he get In trouble again, for what the report stated was a similar incident. I sign it and don't ask questions bc I was so over it I was looking for other daycares. I walk in the next day to drop off my kids at the daycare and the director tells me that my 2yr old could not come back after today bc he's expelled. However no one told me anything the day before when I signed the paper and it was not on the paperwork either. When I asked why that is when the director proceeded to tell me did I read the incident form I told her yes it's similar to a situation that just happened a few weeks before when she was not there. she then proceeded to tell me that she reviewed the footage and told me a whole different story then from what I signed On the report. So I told her that and stated then why have me sign a report that is not accurate bc you guys seem to not be able to get your story straight. mind You this is my 2nd child getting suspended from this facility for said behavior issues And they knew I was looking for another daycare. from the beginning I paid full price as my school readiness was not transferred yet to their facility which is ok bc they back pay so I would have a credit which I confirmed with the owner. My credit was over $800 and they still tried to get me to pay full price. When I asked about it and mentioned. It that is when the owner decided she would look into my account and seen I had a credit but then tried to say I had a lower credit then $800 which I matched everything up and corrected her. Also when registering my children I provided all paperwork up to date... let me tell you they lost every piece of paperwork provided for all but 1 kid. Now why if im registering 3 kids would I only provide for 1. they always want doctors notes even if the kid misses 1 day. Like what a regular school doesn't even do this. lol. Also they tried to get extra money from school readiness and tried saying my kids is last day was a week after they were expelled. I had to call school readiness to make them aware so the new school could get paid properly.

The reason i gave the school only 4 stars is the bfst/lunch program. I think if you're in elementary school and given the choice of chocolate milk or white milk you're going to choose chocolate. And the juice should not be a fruit choice. What is wrong actual fruit? And less sugary cereals need to be on the menu as well. And where is Michelle Obama's school lunch program? Heavy sugar, trans fats and carbs are not good for anyone. Please, no plastic food for our children.

My daughter's teachers have always been amazing and we have built very trusting relationships over our time spent (Ms. Kanea, Ms. Taylor, Ms. Brittany, Ms. Jade just to name a few). These young ladies have shown compassion, understanding, patience, and love to both my daughter and myself and it is clear that they understand the impact they have on us both. Mrs. Valerie and Mrs. Mary have consistently kept me abreast on things I've needed to know and have listened to my complaints on things that I felt needed to change, impacting and affecting change where they could to the best of their abilities. Is the center perfect? No. But truly what center is? My biggest reason for keeping my daughter there are the folks named above and so far that's been enough.

Lessons are $30/week, payable on the last week of the previous month in order to hold your scheduled time slot (fees are due, even if you need to skip a week).... not due if the session falls on a major holiday.
