Doane Academy has grown a lot with its diversity and inclusion. However, I tend to see a lot of discrimination and unfairness towards people of color or less fortunate people.

I have had a great experience at Doane. My grade is small with 32 kids, so classes are small, and our teachers know us very well. I feel very comfortable in my classes, and I can go to my teachers for extra help whenever I need it. They make themselves very available to the students. One of my favorite events to take part in every year is called Doane's Dungeon on Halloween. We perform scenes from scary works of poetry or stories throughout the school at night and families and friends come. This year I participated in a scene from The Crucible.

My child attends Doane Academy's Lower School and she absolutely loves it. She can't wait to go to school every day, and we as her parents could not be happier with the education she is receiving.

I can see the growth she has made here in just a few short months. I’m excited to watch her continued grow...

Beware of this school if your child has any learning disabilities, ie adhd, anxiety. The teachers, counselors and administrators will not support your child, if anything they will turn on them. They will use your child if they are an athlete and put an extraordinary amount of pressure on them. We we...
