5.0 Junior

10/18/2019

The Founders Academy is a fantastic school that provides students with all the resources they need to thrive in a self-motivated learning experience. The best way to improve this school and give students more of an academic advantage is to give the administration more funding. The walls are bare and most materials are teacher provided including printer ink. If we had more money to put into the school a whole generation of kids from Manchester would go on to help the country in countless ways and potentially change the world with the morals that are taught here.

Great alternative for Public Middle and High School without going to a private school. We explored many options and decided on Founders and are very pleased with the education experience our children are having. The Dean and Staff are amazing and very dedicated to the children.

I love this school, the Dress Code is ridiculous though. This school deserves a A on this website. There are few flaws in the way this school is run, and everyone here enjoys it on a day to day basis.
