Having a kid with special needs. This is not the school I’ve sent medical records talk to the teachers came to meet the teacher night and they insured me that everything will be okay they change staffing every year. They judged my baby on the first day gave me the run around then said my babies application wasn’t accepted when I enrolled him a month before the school year started and got text messages that my child was ACCEPTED and had a teacher and had been in class I’m disgusted with the discrimination and literally cried they were awful. Grand Prairie west campus.

Please speak to someone before getting worried at the negative reviews. They have had staff changes and this school is so great. They address discipline professionally but in an effective way for parents like me to feel safe sending my child. He even comes home talking about things like empathy. We both love this school and the people there.

My 3 grandchildren attend this school and two of them are in the same class due to them being twins, the teacher is amazing being able to individualize the kids and sees both of their differences. The other is 6 grade and the teachers are bringing out his personality and talents. I see a great improvement in all the kids since being at this campus. I tip my hat Dr. Hill! This school is amazing!

My family has had the worst experiences with this school since day one. We recently moved here early this year. My child has special needs where there are resources put in place to follow. Advance academy west campus has been a huge pain. Their communication skills, their staff, their resources, their. pick up and drop off, their discipleship and any other sources I’ve made of left out. They don’t take a ownership in anything they do. I’ve tried working with this school on so many levels. I’ve became irritated with this whole thing, to the point I’m withdrawing my child from the school. It’s only been two months! They gave me the run around with my child school supplies. We all know school supplies aren’t cheap...lol My family needs a school with better resources that will improve my child’s needs.

Advantage Academy East needs A LOT improvement. This school curriculum is low stander and my kids coming from honor’s classes to having homework every day to learning the same thing they learned last year with no homework every day. Maybe it’s due to the constant rotation of teachers for each grade level and the constant rotation of principles. My 6th grader tell me about how the students concentrate on fighting each other, boyfriend and girlfriend relationship and among other senseless acts. Advantage needs to focus more on implementing Core Curriculum Clubs and Classes to ensure that the students are fully prepared to engage education, vocation and life, strategically. If I have to rate this school on a level from 1-5 it would be “2”. Up your game Advantage.

My Children have been at this school for 6 years. It has its ups and downs. Ive recently moved 3 of my 4 children out of the school. I have many complaints, but the biggest problem I had with the school is the change in staff. Every year was like coming back to a new school. It had all new teachers...every year. There is no way to connect with the kids if the teachers change every year. I blame the Administration because obviously there is something wrong when you dont have the incentives to keep teachers from year to year. The ENTIRE Administration at this campus has COMPLETELY changed at least 3 times since weve been there. When they get great teachers, they cant seem to keep them.

EDIT:The new system with picking up students seems to be working great. As long as the helpful staff keeps traffic flowing and the way students are being dismissed there should not be any issue.. drop offs are also flowing well I have arrived at different times and all seems to be running smoothly. Thank you for addressing this quicklyOld reviewI will change rating once I see a change in the way students are picked up. I understand this is the first week of school, Ive been in line to pick up daughter for 45 minutes now and Im still in fron of the school. Im in the correct lane while the other lane should be used for leaving. But instead people who are barely arriving are using that lane to cut all the way in front. This is is completely unfair and should not be tolerated. Either a cone or a staff member should be directing traffic on the that lane. Again as I write this, I arrived at 3:10pm and was on the street in front of the school and it is now 4pm and Im in front of the school gym.

This is a great school and having both my kids here is one of the best things my wife and I have done. Many bad reviews you see about this school everywhere have something in common: They are all written by the teenagers that go there. As a parent, you know that at their age most of teenagers all they like to do is complain. Parents: “The best school starts from home” and you really need to be involve in your kid’s life for any school to work out with your kids, don’t just send your kids to school and expect for the teachers to deal with them so that you can turn around and say that is the school’s fault. Still Dont like this school?... You can always take your kids somewhere else, it is just that simple!

I will admit. I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THIS SCHOOL. My friend, however, has. This school has reportedly had 2 deaths, none of which were recorded (considering this school is private). I have also heard reports that there is little to no learning involved. The school needs to be shut down, but it most likely never will, at least until someone does something about it.

I am currently a student in this school and my experience over the years has been both unpleasant and pleasant at times. I feel that there are a few things that this school is not great about and naming a few are the school lunches the disciplinary methods and the education websites that we use for example i station it is very limited and linear also every time I play it I feel like im living an episode of Dora the Explorer. Other than those complaints the school is descent at providing extra curricular activities that is all

This school needs better faculty members and more communication with the parents!The majority of the teachers are not even certified to teach! Thats why plenty of parents are taking their kids out of this school

Absolutely bad. The food is disgusting and all the lunch ladies have to do it just warm it up to get paid. Whats all that stuff in the kitchen used for then? Ha, Even the students can WARM UP the food themselves! I also hate the fact that there are always new teachers each year. Most of them were worse then the last years teachers. Would NOT recommend this school TO ANYONE.

This has got to be the worse school I have ever been apart of. My daughter is currently going to this school it is horrible! From the food they serve to the learning. My child came from talented and gifted. Everyday she comes home I ask what did you learn baby; she states mommy literally nothing they are going over things I learned in 2nd grade. When I reached out to the school the principal Mrs Beverly Compton is non responsive, I asked is there another class that maybe my daughter can get some advanced learning from; they replied unfortunate we dont have enough teachers for that. My daughter has come home stating that her 4th grade teacher told them by time they are 15 they will be in prison. If learning is your #1 priority for your child I highly advise you not to choose this school. My rating does not involve any stars!!!

Do not let them bait you by telling you they offer dual credits. We signed up our son, based on the dual credit offerings, which he has yet to receive. 2016-2017: No instructors. 2017-2018: Miscommunication. We have to wait to know for next semester. This is not an ideal institution for parents who desire challenged high school students.

Horrible school all the teachers are new even the principal, dont waiste your time here , food at lunch is horrible and teachears are so disorganized, dont pay attention to the kids and dont communicate to each other or the parents. Not a good school at all. La escuela es horrible muy desorganizada y no todos los maestros son nuevos y no saben que hacer si algo pass. Horrible.

I am a student in AAGP this is my 2nd year I enjoy this school in some ways but in others this school is not the best. As a punishment we may not talk in the hallways or at lunch. They have also taken away out gym time/period. They want us to be the perfect scholars witch means no bad behavior or bad grades they have been more demanding this year. If you make one mistake they will send you to the principals office and suspend you. I sometimes enjoy this school because each Wednesday early relase day at 2:20 witch is great. That is the only thing about this school early relase.

Their pick up/drop off procedures are insane! They have no room for parking and limited car lanes. Every parent with little kids is going to have to find a parking to walk them inside because theres no one near the lanes to receive them and all doors are locked. So you either drop them off and hope they made it inside safely or find a parking and spend 30 mins. Picking up is a hassle as well they have improved, but still takes 20 mins to come in and out if you are on time. If you are late it will be less that 10 mins

This school is a a very bad school. The janitor took pictures at me while my friends and I were walking to the Boys and Girls Club. That lady didnt have permission to even take pictures of me so I dont get why she even took pictures, so I couldve sued her. The school was really crappy because the teachers taught things from 5th grade when you were supposed to be learning 6th grade things. so the school tbh r3eally sucks there are no strict rules so its pretty messed up
