The program is well structured and helped her master the skills she needed to gain the confidence to perform well in school. She went from a low 70's student to a mid 90's. I would highly recommend this program for kids of any age that need any amount of help with math.

When 5 dads working the grill at the football concession stand tell you "you need to call Daryl at…read moreShepherd's", you listen to the five dads. Daryl was amazing to work with. He is patient, calm, confident, and reassuring. And even though he and I coordinated to start my son's lessons, after that first one he made my son "adult" by scheduling the rest of his lessons and I appreciated that immensely. I'm typing this from the passenger seat because my son just passed his test on the first try, so needless to say, we are thrilled with the work Daryl did. Those dads were not wrong and we are all glad we listened!

Our family has had a fabulous first year at Harrisburg Academy! We find the teachers and…read moreadministrators very responsive. The curriculum is exceptional. The values, educational emphasis, and vision of this school as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School are second-to-none. If you want the best for your child (K through 12), this is a terrific school! What I find exceptional about the school is the level of care of the teachers and staff. My child is not just a number. With small class size, the attention on each child is great. Teachers and staff members, who do not have my child in class, know him by name and greet him daily. There are plenty of school-wide activities that are wonderful to participate in, as a parent. It truly is not just a place to get an amazing education, it is a family of like-minded individuals, who want the best for their children and who want something more than the typical public school education. I'll finish with this: what sold me on the Academy is the emphasis on preparing "thinkers" for a world that is constantly-changing; they gear their education to teach children "how" to problem-solve, not just how to memorize for the test; they acknowledge the global-connectedness that our world is currently experiencing, and as such their philosophy is train the students to be prepared for the globally-connected workplace, not just how to graduate with a diploma. As a full-continuum International Baccalaureate (IB) World School they are preparing these children for the future. I want my child to be his best and have terrific educational opportunities. I have no doubt that that is what we are getting at the Harrisburg Academy. We hope to keep our son there through grade 12! I hope this review was helpful to you.

If your kids are into the arts and sciences this is the best private school for them! The tuition…read moreis high but it includes before and after school care for elementary aged kids. The best part is that parents can volunteer in the classroom without so many restrictions as public school. Background checks are required of course. With the new leadership I expect many great things to come at the academy. It has recently become an IB world school for all grades K-12 (not just a couple years in high school at other schools in the area). This is hands down the best preschool around so even if you end up moving your kids to public school in 1st grade you'll get your money's worth.
