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.

This school is not good for anyone wanting to come here, it's very hard even find friends who will be there for the long run. The school sucks at making the environment nice, not to mention if someone is getting very good scores on their tests and are smart enough to understand 8th grade math have to learn at the same pace as everyone else because the schools middle school is too small to even have more classrooms, no variety of after school clubs and we have a field that the school doesn't even own, they had to make an announcement for kids to stop littering so they have access to the field. Do not go to this school

I decided to switch to a public high school in Hayward, which, in my opinion, is far better than Impact in terms of resources and opportunities offered to s...

Impact Academy is like a private school education that you get for free. I see some of the reviews here speak very harshly of this school and even though I understand that not everyone can be happy, my experience here has been excellent. The teachers really care. When you ask for help, someone will...

I am forever indebted to the education I received here, which is why I cannot give it a 1-star review. The teachers here are mostly great, with a few exceptions. As an Alumni who graduated last year, I have formed long-lasting bonds with teachers that I am still in contact with, being in college now...
