You will get harassed and bullied and nothing is done about it (If you're white) I am disabled and was verbally attacked and almost physically but some of the students stepped in. When the "investigation" went on only three students were asked to give statements and of course all three were her friends lmao. I wasn't even given a chance to tell my side, I wasn't even asked for a statement. Needless to say I was expelled and the other girl is still attending. The last white girl who spoke on it and her parents threatened to sue the teachers were all told to just pass her and get her through. Needless to say she didn't take her nclex because she would have failed. School is trash. I'm glad I changed my mind about being an LPN and take a shortcut. I will be pursuing my RN at a reputable school. This institution loses its accreditation all the time so be aware. I'm attaching the review that the other girl left so you can see this is a recurring problem. She removed it once the parents threatened to sue and the school agreed to pass her. If you smoke pot it's ok we will send you to clinicals anyway. What a joke. Also, the BEST part is one of the teachers pulled her gun (yes you heard me correctly) on a student because she thought it was an intruder - all of this occurred while the school was open. This school is filthy dirty and smells like mildew. This place is a joke. Stay away. You've been warned.

Orange County Preparatory Academy opened last fall in the old Page Private School facility. I…read moredecided to transfer my youngest child from the public school she was attending after a few bad years. Getting the postcard in the mail telling me that OCPA was opening was honestly one of the best things that could have happened. Before I switched my daughter I did my research about charter schools and the company that manages OCPA, Charter School Associates. I'd recommend any parents that are considering it do the same research. I found that they had several good schools, and I was hopeful that this new one would follow in those same footsteps. So, as for my review of the school... the beginning of the school year was rough, with the expected growing pains and some unexpected ones. Traffic was a nightmare, the principal left, and loads of other little things. Now, at the half way point in the year it appears that most things have been smoothed out. And I am very happy we switched. I love that this school is a K-8 school (currently to 7th, but 8th is supposed to be added next year). The school is supposed to focus on STEM, and in the fall all grades participated in a school-wide science fair. For a new school they have really hit the ground running with awesome events for the kids. At Halloween they had a trunk-or-treat, which was loads of fun. They also did a storybook day and had a school-wide fairy tale bowl with questions about the stories. The school provides after school tutoring and several clubs. The addition of clubs came later in the year than I would have liked, but we are really happy about the options. My daughter is in the after care program. One huge perk over the public school she was at is that they only charge you for days the child attends. Since my daughter only has to go to after care a few days a week I save money by not having to pay for the whole week like I used to. Since this is a charter school they wear uniforms. They had a few sales events at the school where we could purchase them and I had no problems with the uniform company. So far my daughter really likes wearing the uniform, and it makes getting ready in the morning super easy. That's all I can think of. I'm assuming if you are reading this review you may be thinking about switching to the school, so feel free to send me a note and I'll answer questions.

My children and I have been a member of the OCPA community since its beginning. As such, we've seen…read morethe school make some great strides, especially over this last year in particular. Yes, OCPA does have its positives and negatives, like any other school might. But OCPA's very accessible administration and small classroom sizes lend a very personal touch to each child's learning experience. The principal, Mr Higgins, and fellow administrator, Mr Austin, have been consistent and dedicated contributions to OCPA's improvement this year. Under this new leadership, I have seen more new programming such as organized athletic teams with winning records, various educational/STEM nights, and fun field days, just to name a few that I've personally participated in. I believe the structure and culture that Higgins and Austin have instilled have grown the school's support staff and allowed for some great momentum this year. For that, I give OCPA 4 stars. With only more improvement in OCPA's future, I am sure that it will earn the 5th star sooner than later!

Social bridges school was changed to willow school of winter springs several years ago. Willow…read moreschool is an amazing school and they still use integrated services with social ridges. However the name of the institute did change and social ridges while they provide services to the entire school on Wednesday, they are their own entity now and are not located on campus. Let it be noted however that the social bridges program is outstanding for children in the need of appropriate social interaction and training. My son attends with Willow school and participates in social bridges. Let me tell you something, this kid is one of the most polite and in control of their emotions then any other kid I've seen including my other two. Social bridges focuses on not only appropriate social behavior, but dealing with things like anxiety anger and frustration with or rather by providing them coping skills to do so. I'm a big fan of social bridges and if they could integrate something like this and to public school that would be downright amazing. $15,000 intuition... For goodness sake I hope social Bridges is included! But you can't put a price on peace of mind for your child.
