    I wanted more for my son. I expected more of my son - public school didn't deliver, but Pensacola…read moreSchool of Liberal Arts (SoLA) exceeded our expectations. My son began struggling in 10th grade while attending a local public high school. I can't begin to tell you how many meetings we had with teachers, counselors, deans, principals, IEP and district representatives. Since he wasn't a discipline problem they kept passing him on. I soon learned my son was an experiment for a floundering system. Following a terrible semester report card, we decided to search for a private school. I was surprised to find Pensacola had so many choices. After visiting most of them, I concluded these private schools were all a one-size fits all style of student and curriculum all except for SoLA. On our second visit to SOLA, Mrs. Tarver "interviewed" my son to identify what was missing in his quest to become a lifelong learner. Finally a school administrator that was willing to get to the core of why he wasn't learning. The SoLA staff had truly taken an interest in my son reaching his full potential. SoLA taught him first; that he must want to learn. Once he learned this skill others followed, including; independent thinking, creativity, integrity and balance, he became happier and believed for the first time he could do this work. He became independent, self-motivated and the stress level in our home dropped significantly. Final thought: While our local schools are struggling to lift performance across the board, SoLA is doing this one student at a time. Teachers will always be underpaid - and underappreciated but the teachers at SoLA know they didn't choose to teach for these reasons. They chose education to change lives and the Pensacola School of Liberal Arts does this greater than anyone else... One student at a time. Congratulations class of 2016 including my son and thank you Jacqui Tarver and Travis Cummings for teaching and caring for all of these children!

    RBCS seemed like a quality school - their admissions…read moredepartment made me feel welcome and made the school seem excellent academically. However, I had three problems: 1. The talent development program (presented as special education) is not special education. The instructors don't need to have education degrees and get on-the job training and seminars on specific general education topics. The only difference I saw is smaller class size (yay) and slower speed: they use the same material as other schools but go slower. The students didn't seem to get other resources including no sustained reading specialist intervention (it's only a short term intervention if staff feels it'll help). 2. Responsiveness to concerns: several administrators dismissed our educational concerns, asking us to trust their process. But their process involved much less actual educational teaching than other area schools. 3. Discipline: admissions stressed that their discipline system hasn't changed in 50 years. It showed. The system in elementary school involves a dozen or so red-letter items (in the blood of Jesus) and a similar number of black-letter (sinful) items. The discipline system is absolutely equated with moral/ Christ-like behavior. Children are frequently admonished about their "red" or "black" behavior. Lots of kids show anxiety about this. A lot of parents stated concern. My kid had daily issues over this to the point of needing medical intervention. The problems resolved when we switched schools. This was one experience - it may fit well for others. But I recommend asking lots of very specific questions before choosing RBCS.

    Robertsdale Elementary is the absolute worse school experience. My 5th grade student is without a…read morepermanent home room teacher, it's now November and so far they have switched the Teacher 5 times. The first Teacher was arrested for credit card fraud, the second teacher quit after two weeks, the third teacher was banned from the classroom for threatening my child, the fourth teacher I not sure what happened. I don't even know my child's new teacher, no email , no correspondence updates NOTHING! This is the absolute worst a child can go through. My child used to love school, now she doesn't enjoy it. The office staff isn't very welcoming either.

My memory us of getting into trouble and having to stand outside in the dark hallway..(the school had wood floors then) and freaking out upon hearing shoes clomping from the distance, fearing it was Virgil Buck, the principal at the time, coming toward me. He actually found me once and was very kind to me. Of course, I had his wife as a teacher in 2nd grade and she kept me in a 'special' desk close to hers so she could keep an eye on me. I actually thrived that year. The place was so old they still had cloak rooms. I was put in there a lot by teachers. The whole place was OLD! I'm quite surprised I didn't find graffiti from my mom and dad's time! But I loved the grassy hill outside that sprouted onion grass every spring and the old oaks and pecan trees. One of the old trees is still there but a shadow of its former might. So glad certain landmarks are still around.

    If I had known it would be this difficult to get in contact with someone or receive responses…read moreregarding inquiries and submitted documents, I would have applied to Pensacola State College instead. I have attended two other universities, both online and in person, and this has honestly been the worst experience I've had, and it's only week one of classes. It took an entire month for my documents, which were already in the system, to be reviewed so I could be admitted even though I called every week to check up on it and they had everything. I was then finally admitted the same day class registration opened, while the systems were down. Since then, I have been unable to reach my academic advisor despite emailing and calling for the past two weeks regarding a course transfer issue. A class that should have been transferred from my transcript was not applied, which is now preventing me from registering for my next course due to a 'prerequisite not met' error. Phones and emails are rarely answered, and the lack of communication has made this process extremely frustrating. If I had more time and had not already submitted everything to the VA, I would seriously consider applying to PSC instead. It's crazy because I applied to an administrative position here in the Undergrad department when I first moved to the area and they didn't take me. They clearly need more people or better people for that matter because whoever they chose can't handle the workload.
