    Walden is good for a specific type of kid. A kid who needs a smaller, more personalized environment…read morefor academic success without needing a lot of emotional or medical support. One of my friends had an F in math before she went to Walden that they helped her bring up to a B. I am leaving a 3 star review because I had a very mixed experience at Walden, but I recognize that it's a great environment for some students. I went to Walden just a few weeks after being discharged from a therapeutic boarding school in Utah. It was a very rough transition for me, and Walden both helped and hurt. The other students were great, and the small size was much better for an autistic kid than a traditional public school. However, the teachers and administration were not very understanding. I know that they can only do so much to help an emotionally struggling teen, but they could have practiced more of what they taught: empathy. I had issues with showing off, but instead of talking to me about it and correcting me in the moment, administration talked to my parents about expelling me. It would have been different if they'd corrected me and I hadn't changed, but they didn't even try to give me feedback. Academics were decent. Great for kids who need a personalized curriculum. But I noticed that when I transferred to virtual public school, I was learning things that I should have learned in Algebra 1 in Algebra 2. They make it very hard to go to a school with a different curriculum, and that leads to some kids falling behind. They claimed to have extracurriculars that they didn't have. When I was there, they just had a dance class with a very unempathetic and ableist teacher. I was on a med that gave me significant side effects, including heatstroke susceptibility. Towards the end of the school year, we were doing a very physical dance outside, and I noticed symptoms of heat illness. When I asked the dance teacher to take a break, she refused because it was a partner dance and I couldn't leave my partner. She then said that she was proud of me for doing things even when I got hot, despite me saying many times that what she was making me do was a health hazard. I arrived at home that day and crashed on my bed, sleeping for about 2 hours. I now know that what I was experiencing was heat exhaustion. Easily preventable if the dance teacher had allowed me a break. All in all, this school has its pros and cons. Great social environment and personalized academics, but lack of understanding of students who struggle medically and emotionally. Some kids excel at Walden, others don't. If considering this school, make sure your kid is the type to excel there.

    We wanted more for our daughter and that's why we chose Walden Community School…read more We wanted her to love learning and to be excited about going to school everyday. On top of that, we wanted her to be safe and in an environment that would give her the freedom that she needs to express herself and learn from her peers. The curriculum is extraordinary and I'm constantly blown away by the critical thinking and creative writing skills that she's been developing at Walden.

    I am truly disappointed by the current administration at Bishop Moore Catholic High School. It's…read moreclear that student well-being is not a priority. There have been multiple instances where students reported being bullied or harassed, and the school either failed to take action or, worse, appeared to protect the offenders--despite having clear evidence. Academically, the education offered is not significantly different from that of a public school, yet families are paying a substantial amount of money--essentially for a religion class. It's hard to understand where the tuition funds are going when some bathrooms have no air conditioning and there are roaches present in the facilities. Even more alarming is the repeated pattern of scandals involving teachers engaging in inappropriate relationships with students. Although these teachers are eventually fired, the fact that this has happened multiple times raises serious concerns about oversight and student safety. If you're considering Bishop Moore for your child, I would strongly urge you to explore other private schools--or even public schools--before making a decision.

    So it was my sophomore year at this school and this year was genuinely the WORST school year ever…read morefor me. Ima just say this now DO NOT COME HERE IF YOUR A PERSON OF COLOR. The students here are racist and the teachers not staff do anything about it. My first day at this school I was constantly getting racially harassed all day and when I went to talk to a dean about it they did nothing. Also the lack of diversity in all of the activities that they have here is honestly really sad. I went to both of the prep rally's they had here (they sucked) but it was honestly disheartening to see the lack of people my skin color not really in anything there were only a few students my color in some activities. The teachers aren't that great but not too bad or whatever. They actually care about the autistic and special ed at this school. I was also racially profiled by an autistic kid and told one of the teachers and excused it and saying "it's because of their autism". The school itself was VERY dirty and some of the utilities were broken and I've spotted multiple roaches dead and alive in the cafeterias it was nasty dude and the power cut off at the school and it was hot all day. Also there was recently a flood that happened and they were moving us all around the school it was kinda unorganized But they tried I guess..I was also touched inappropriately by another autistic kid, and once and again it was excused because of their autism. Also the hallways are always super crowded bro it sucks. So anyways this was probably the worst school year I've ever had at a school and like I said before DO NOT COME HERE!!!

    This school is privately owned and certainly run for profit…read more I was pressured to signing my daughter up prematurely and was then massively ripped off by them (Over $2k ). I personally wrote to the owner who couldn't be bothered to reply. Quite simply they did what was clearly the 'wrong thing' to do, but could get away with it, so greed won. Also don't be too swayed by the 'super academics' for toddlers. All data shows children in the early years learn best through play and this school is all about structure and rules like mini school. Emotional intelligence is not being nurtured here.

    DO NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILD HERE ... unless you'd like a school that puts money before empathy and…read morecompassion. I was an established family as my daughter has been with PHA for 2 years. The teaching staff is amazing however the administration (executive director Danelle Restrepo and owner Patrick Knight) are despicable. I enrolled my daughter and son for the 2022-2023 school year and paid my $2,500 deposit and materials fees early in the year. However, I then was offered the opportunity to attend the Univ. of Miami for grad school (I'm a single mom of 2 who is still in school). I wasn't sure I was going to get in as it was last minute and I had none of the required materials just my transcripts and recommendations - nonetheless I did. So I let Christy and Danelle know of my situation and how it was unexpected but too good of an opportunity to pass up so I would be leaving PHA to move to Miami. Knowing I had already put my deposit and materials fees down, I asked if I could be refunded my $2,500 if they're able to fill my children's spots. They explained that it is non-refundable deposit and how it is the same across all private schools. She continued to tell me how I signed a contract saying I understood that. Now of course, I completely understand the non-refundable deposit in similar situations like mine where unexpected reasons cause children to be unenrolled and a spot left open that they could have filled with another child - in cases where they would have taken a financial loss at the expense of my situation. However, they have a waitlist and would surely fill my children's spot with no problem - which in turn creates no financial loss. So I see no problem in asking for my money back. They have no need for it if they have already received that deposit and material fees from another family in replace of mine. Needless to say, they continued to decline in which case I had to decline my own offer at the Univ. of Miami because I didn't have the funds to put down my own deposit because I was never refunded the money from PHA (like I said I was still a student and a single mom of 2 so money was slim). I then told them that I would be staying at PHA because I couldn't afford UM and that it shouldn't be a problem since they already have my deposit. Christy then responds saying that she had already given my son's spot away a couple days after giving my notice WHILE STILL HAVING MY DEPOSIT. I ask her to have the family be put on the waitlist because as an established family and one who has already paid material fees and deposit, I should have preference. She then apologizes but declines and puts Noah on the top of the waitlist. Now I must wait and hope that PHA has an opening for my son before the start of the school year. I can't wait around for childcare because I need to work and would have no back up plan. Due to this, I start looking around for other private schools in the area. During my search, I explain why I'm leaving PHA and the situation that I've endured with them. All of the schools continued to tell me that if it was them they would have refunded the deposit if the spot was filled because there would be no financial loss taken and no need to keep the money. So contrary to what Danelle said, not all private schools (except PHA) hold greed above empathy. With no response until a couple weeks before the start of the school year, did they call to let me know that there was a spot open for Noah. I let them know that Noah would be staying at his current school because I couldn't wait around for them to give me an answer. I continued to ask for a refund with continued decline. I resulted to reaching out the the owner of the school. I explained the entirety of the situation and have never received a response. Completely unprofessional administration. There's more, but I'm passed the character limit..just follow my advice and go somewhere else. Park Maitland and Lake Forrest Prep are great options!
