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.

Anderson Prep is a military type of school. I've been going here since 1st grade and I really enjoyed it. The worst part about this school is definitely the food.

We love APA! We switched from the local public school system to APA a few years back and it was one of the best decisions I have made concerning schooling with my kids. We love it!

Teachers take time to make sure that their students are not only passing, but they also make sure that their students are understanding the material.

Horrible school to allow their basketball players in 8th grade who are so incredibly talented to act the way they did along with their coach. Such a shame

APA has been phenomenal for both of our kids. Both had IEPs and the SSC teachers have been outstanding!

APA is an excellent school, they meet the students where they are (academically) and help them achieve their highest potential. They have small classroom size and the teachers get to know all the kids on a personal level to help them succeed.

This school is great for my kids. Every school has its issues. The one thing I love is the class size. The one thing I think needs worked on is that the teachers need to be more aware of what goes on in the classroom. The special education piece is AMAZING
