One of the things that makes Cranium Academy WG stand out is their incredible performing arts program. They put on two Broadway Junior productions every year, and the quality is outstanding! It's amazing to see students of all ages shine on stage, gain confidence, and work together in such a creative environment. Cranium also serves such a wide range of ages - from one year olds all the way through eighth grade - and they manage to create a seamless, nurturing experience for every stage of learning and development. It's wonderful to know that children can grow up in the same positive, inspiring environment year after year. We couldn't be happier with our experience at Cranium Academy. It's more than just a school - it's a community that feels like family!

There are also cameras there to peek in on them and give me a little piece of mind with the youngest having such a hard time adjusting.

StarChild Academy Winter Garden (SCAWG) is a great option for preschool; however, I strongly…read morecaution against enrolling your child in the elementary school. The overall positives of the school are cultural diversity among the staff and student body, a family feel, and friendly, caring faculty and staff, as well as building updates on the preschool side. Preschool Pros: curriculum Preschool Cons: Teacher retention; on average, children go through at least 2 lead teachers a year, and it's a revolving door for assistants. When our children were attending SCAWG, it was advertised as an advanced curriculum school; it's not. We withdrew our youngest child first because it's easiest to succeed in surrounding charter schools' lotteries when entering kindergarten. Youngest attended from age 2.5 - 5 (VPK). Youngest is testing above grade level in ELA (was even promoted to grade 1 phonics class at new school) on Florida's statewide standardized assessments (F.A.S.T); however, Math results were below grade level. Elementary School Pros: N/A Elementary School Cons: no technology in classrooms, teacher retention, no behavioral specialist, inadequate disciplinary action, unrealistic amount of at-home supplementing, ineffective curriculum, no positive reinforcements for academic achievement, no standardized test prep, combined 4th and 5th grade class Oldest attended from age 3-9 (grade 3.5; we withdrew after mid-year). For context, in kindergarten, first, and second grade, the oldest had all A's with 1 B for the whole school year. Q1 of third grade all A's, one B, Q2 of third grade all A's, one B. Oldest tested at grade level in ELA on F.A.S.T and below grade level in Math. At SCAWG, they introduce concepts and move on quickly without allowing the child adequate time to practice or retain what they've learned. While every institution has its pros and cons, we're most disappointed by what we now realize is a horrible curriculum and questionable teaching styles. There are better elementary school options in the area than SCAWG, and I urge you to exhaust them. SCAWG Elementary turned out to be a colossal waste of money for us - it shouldn't have to be for you, too.

Horrible horrible school. I had the worst time of my entire elementary school experience here. I…read morecame in 3rd grade and my teacher saw my pop quiz results and told me to stand up. She then picked up my paper and announced to the whole class "this is what not to do" she then rolled her eyes and slammed my paper on my desk. Additionally, I couldn't afford school lunch and I didn't bring my own. All I wanted was a milk so I quick grabbed a strawberry milk and headed back to my seat. The lunch lady came over and grabbed my wrist and ripped me out of my seat. She realized it was the unpopular strawberry milk and then said it was fine and set me back down. By. My. Wrist. Another instance with the same 3rd grade teacher I asked when PE started and she told me to stand up and apologize to the class. I said I was sorry and she proceeded to tell me that it wasn't a real apology. When going to the principal about this she removed me from my class into a much better one. But as it turns out they moved the bad teacher into Kindergarten. Completely messed up. And last thing. When I was in 4th grade I was in the Spanish program and one particular day I was having a hard time comprehending the Spanish. My teacher was fed up and snapped at me infront of the whole class and slammed down an English textbook instead. Thanks for the horrible experience!!!
