The schools seems to hire teachers with shady backgrounds some of them show signs on sociopathy towards students and each other.

Calusa is a Christian-based school that is actually affordable. They aren't perfect, but they are always on an upward track trying to improve. They always have a listening ear and put into action resolutions. They don't hinder the child's spiritual or educational growth; instead they encourage it by meeting them right where they are.

Calusa Preparatory is the best private school in Miami-Dade County. It has a family atmosphere. The administration serve the community night and day to make an impact in society. My most favorite experiences include the mentoring provided by our Senior Sponser and head coach. I have countless memories of fun character building activities and opportunities.

I pray for this school but had to pull my kids out. My heart is broken as I was very exited by the expectations but disappointed by the results.

I am extremely happy to have found this school for my daughters. When they were in public schools they were very shy, but now they are very outgoing girls.

If you want your kid to be physically abused by other kids and watch how nothing is done about the abuser, send your kid here.
