Oh & the views~ along the waterfront, they have the loveliest of parks! I also strolled the local cemetery- old gravestones fascinate me! You can walk the whole historic area with no problem- plenty of street parking and more than enough to do for a lovely day trip or for a weekend get away! Coastal areas- especially Cumberland Island is part of the National Parks Seashore! This is a place I will be sure to come back to!

A friend of mine lives in St Mary's and I dog say for her for 12 days. I live in Jax so I decided…read moreto treat it as a stay-cation! We were within walking distance from the historic district. Every day I tried to do something new and go on some small "adventure". One of the first places I went was Crooked River State Park-just a short ride from historic St Marys. The waterfront was nice but a very small area. I'm used to having access to the water so it was sad to just have to observe it from yards away. There were several small piers in the area and it was nice to walk on them but again, the area was so small in 20 minutes you'd be finished with them all. There is some interesting history in St Marys and it was fun to explore that. I was disappointed by the amount of family owned restaurants in the area. I imagine it's difficult to keep a small business open in an area that doesn't seem to have a lot of people nearby. The main options close to the historic district (aside from a few restaurants near the waterway) are Wendy's, Taco Bell or Domino's. One thing I'd like to see in St Marys is all the golf cart drivers following the street signs and lights. Golf carts are crawling around the place like ants! It's cute at first but it's annoying when golf carts dart out in front of you and don't stop at stop signs-and I guess expect you to stop so you don't hit them. I'd like to see state laws surrounding motor vehicles enforced. I also went to part of Okefenokee for a couple hours. It's less than an hour from St Marys. I recommend this part but if you go this time of year be prepared for S N A K E S and mosquitoes! I saw a rattlesnake and flipped out! Anyway back to my review... St Marys would be a cute place to stay for a weekend but unless you're prepared to drive at least an hour either north or south you'll be bored once you've exhausted exploring the historic area, which won't take that long. Be careful of golf carts darting all around!

Our school door to the public is always locked and we have protocols in place to make sure students are secure. Not only are our teachers trained to work with special education students, but the school system also employs two special education coordinators to work with students and teachers on site. We work closely with Dr. Melton, Wachin Kennedy, and Dr. Cato with the Camden County school board. We also have a trained Physician's Assistant/EMT and a school nurse on staff.

I took a chance and enrolled my oldest in ALA 2 years ago. I went through many challenges with the…read morepublic school system. She suffered from ADHD and was not being challenged enough with the public schools. We asked repeatedly for her to be tested for the gifted math program. When she moved to ALA in 5th grade, they immediately identified that she needed to be tested. She was placed in Middle school math and excelled. The individual attention each student gets really helped her focus. Most if not all the teachers have experience with special education needs whether is personal or professional. After the first school year at ALA, I moved my other child from Camden Public Schools to ALA. Since Kindergarten (currently in 3rd) I struggled to get them to identify what I immediately saw and to implement a IEP. I ended up having to go outside the system when she was in 1st grade to have her tested because they said it would be another year. I'm glad I did because they wanted to hold her back and of course we fought it since we identified the issue. They attempted to do it in Second but because I identified the lack of service being provided by the county and also having her in GA Cyber Academy for a semester we realized she was better in a smaller setting and one on one which the county could not provide. I moved her to ALA this year and she has caught up and now a straight A student. Her reading and math has improved so much. The proof is in how parents and school works together to help a child succeed. Some may find the way they teach different from traditional public school SPED, but they have taken several continuing education classes on helping the children especially dyslexia which the public system will not accommodate . The learning scale is based on where the student excels or falls below. So they may be in a middle school math but a 3rd grade reading level in the 6th grade. The child would be placed in the math level they excel in and then placed in a group where their reading level is worked on. When the child begins to show improvement they are tested to see if they could handle the current grade level. They use the same testing system as the public school to find the level. Their actual Special Education Teacher Mr. Clark is amazing. He is patience of a saint so to say when it comes to helping.
