Overall, Socrates Academy is a great school that puts a great focus on academics. There are lots of opportunities to join or even create clubs, and everyone is close to one another. The only downside is that Socrates Academy is a small school with limited funds, but even though there may be less variety of classes to pick from, the dual enrollment program is very useful in filling that gap, and Socrates Academy is still growing and making positive progress.

first off, i wanted rate this school a 0 but it wouldn't let me. let me start on the reasons why you shouldn't send your kid here, if you send your kids here you will destroy their life. maybe i'm exaggerating but this school DOES NOT care about your child's mental health they do not challenge the kids, and they are not "busy making your kids smarter" your kids are busy getting into trouble. they think they know what's good for your kid and they don't. my first reason is that the admin doesn't care about you and the kids are real mean, they think they run a "mafia". once you get into a bad situation you won't get OUT. they label you as a bad kid and suddenly your targeted by every admin. sadly, socrates was only good for elementary school but after 5th grade you should leave. they aren't academically strong enough to make your kid smarter. they honestly gave up on the kids after covid. everyday i went there i just wanted to leave. the only thing i miss about this school was the food.

Our children attended this school, and unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. The principal is a rude and unprofessional woman who ignores parents’ concerns and does not respond to requests. The professionalism of some teachers is also questionable: my child was forced to sit alone in...

If you ever 'win' the lottery at this school, pls reconsider. Read the reviews before deciding to enroll your children.The image the school portrays does not match up to reality. 'The Honor School of Excellence' - nowhere in sight, but that's the branding you will see to 'win' you over.The school re...
