Amplus Academy is definitely growing when it comes to being more inclusive. Throughout the years I've been there I've definitely seen improvement in the way they handle things. They have an excellent support staff that is willing to work with you and your needs. I do believe that there is nothing special about their education system and that it's similar to public schools. However they do have mandatory dance and socialization classes that aren't exactly useful but definitely change the pace of your average school day.

I first came to Amplus in my Junior year of high school seeking a better education. Coming to Amplus Academy I believe was the best choice I could've made. I went from F's and D's to A's, B's, and C's. The majority of the staff here at Amplus is amazing. I enjoy the clubs and activities here and the students are awesome.

As a student of over 7 years at Amplus, I enjoy the learning environment that this school has to offer the students are very friendly and the staff is understanding and helpful. During my years here I have noticed that there is a lack of bullying which is what I love about this school. Some things that I feel could be improved at my school are the variety of classes they offer. The variety is disappointing and I feel like the electives are sparse inn numbers. Overall this is an amazing school and I would recommend it to anyone.

This school is decent, but I don't recommend going to it as a current student. Although they fit every standard of a good school, they do everything else poorly. In my experience, I don't feel excited at all for any assignments, and the teachers in the school push us to fit the standard they establi...

Not a good school. Staff is disrespectful and they care too much about things that don’t matter more than they care about the students and education. It’s a mess and the school system is all over the place. I recommend sending your student to a school that knows what they’re doing.

These are the ugly truths that needed to be told, but I’m the only one who is actually brave enough to say something. The bad outweighs the good, and I’m an optimist. I went to this school for one year. I feel as though I’ve lost a year of my life. If your student goes here, please let them talk to...

I have attended this school for five years and will attend until senior year not only because of the amazing curriculum but because of how hard this school pushes us in education, testing, and sports.
