Personally as a student, ASA is a great school. The homework is plenty, but it is there to boost us further into the next day's lesson. Most of the teachers are awesome, and the atmosphere is friendly and accepting. I see no reason why one should harp on my school so relentlessly as some do. I love it!
The Administrative staff, with special mention of Ms. Bledsoe and Ms. Pedro, are absolutely wonderful. They demonstrate a genuine interest in the kids. The teachers are equally awesome!! The atmosphere nurtures the creativity of the students and challenges them to aim higher. Thank you ASA Team.
When there is only ONE negative review, you can pretty much ignore the lower-than-perfect rating of 4.6. I have three family members who have gone to this school or ARE going, and they loved it! Parents do, too.
Worst school that I have ever been to. No people are not accepting only for Gays, and Transgenders. Not people who are not very social. They turn around and backstab you and make everything your fault. Major bullying and gossip. Very cliquey and everyone is superficial. The office is very rude and the teachers all gossip about the students. If you are a new student you are in the lowest arts classes for 2 years. I have been playing the cello for 7 years and I was placed in the last chair of foundations 2 for 2 years. Oh and It is very democratic. They make fun of christians Thanks!
poor administration that doesn't care about their students. some teachers are good. some. Many students go home and have so much work they don't even have time to spend with their families or develop social skills. The graduation rate is not 100% either.
Really bad school if you were in resource they had the special ed teacher sit next to you in class. I had to repeat the fifth grade and since then they kept emailing my mom to take me out of there school. The office people are very rude a the teachers always pick favorite. The teachers would give crazy amounts of home work and would get mad if you couldn't finish it all....i was un happy here.
Excellent team of teachers, artists, administrators. Great academic program and first rate arts programs. Consistently one of the top schools in the state.
Such an amazing school! I've met such amazing at that. All the teachers try to help you. I think anyone who love it. I think they are such an amazing school. I love it!
Alumni reporting in Pros Very great people teach here Every instructor seems to have a passion in their field of study Very supportive administration office Cons The kids can sometimes be hard to relate to Classes like history seem to be very left leaning and the teachers show their own biased viewpoints in these classes STEM wasn't a thing for my cohort Instructors while passionate sometimes have very little skill to teach High stress on homework not enough stress in classwork Overall just an over glorified high-school filled with "gifted" kids who just won a lottery Also no Shrek themed plays very disappointed
I love going here! The teachers are great and they are so nice! Excellent school!
