I like Bacon Academy because of the environment and how the students are treated with respect. Every student matters and is shown kindness by administrators and teachers every day.
3/31/2022
I liked the teaching and how much the teachers were involved. Also I liked the structure of learning on how we had A and B days which made it very easy to keep up with each class.
3/16/2020
I like that Bacon is a very safe school. There has been no issues with kids feeling unsafe or bullied because of how accepting people are of each other. I do not like the facilities, as they are very old. I also do not feel that prepared going into college. Only 2 of all my teachers in my 4 years have actually talked about college to us.
