GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We did not like the parent shaming and robotic type of environment for our kids. They have their own views on what is appropriate for your child and if yours don't coincide they will make it known hence the parent shaming. They have a rigid environment we did not like for our kids. We wanted them to embrace the whole person and their particular situation and personality. It seemed if your situation was not as they wanted or to keep their scores high you are not welcome. The kids seemed trained like robots. I definitely would not send any child with any kind of special need to them rather physically, emotionally or mentally. They aren't equip to handle any type of diversity. My children seem less anxious now with their new school. I don't want them going to school daily feeling like most people at their jobs..hating it.I did review the others and I must say the 1 to 2 stars hit it right on the with my other concerns. I was just focusing on one aspect that annoyed us.

We love the staff involvement and their dedication to their roles, the reasonable class sizes for learning ease, the well maintained buildings with plans for growth, and the number of wonderful opportunities for both students and extended family participation.

I have been teaching for 11 years and TAMC has been the best experience all around. We teachers are given the freedom to implement the standards however we choose to and allowed to bring our unique personalities into our classroom environment. I love my colleagues and we all work hard to respect each other's differences while supporting each other professionally.

This was a very difficult school for me when I went to it. I saw someone bullying the other kid so she got hit and didn't do nun. but when the kids that got bullied hit the girl that bullied them they got in trouble but the bully didn't.

My daughters kindergarten experience was wonderful. She was challenged academically and grew socially. Her teacher identified areas where she needed additional help and worked with us by providing resources and tools that helped her. Her first grade teacher is similar to a cookie cutter. The assignm...

We have had some wonderful experiences at this school. There are teachers at this school that have impacted our lives in the most profound ways through nurturing, captivating and creative learning experiences that celebrate the kids and who they are. This school deserves a new principal.

As a retired public educator, I was concerned when I found out that my grandchildren were going to be attending the Academy of Moore. I am afraid that I had bought into the media's negative perspective of charter schools, but I was totally wrong! After several years of following closely, I can say w...
