I went to Calusa for 1 year, for 3rd grade. I am now 24 years old & I still remember my time there. The teachers had no control over the students & no learning except for when it was time to study the bible, but even that was questionable. I was told crows were the devil & doves were God. As a child, that terrified me. She would tell us stories about seeing the devil & how she would have to chant to ward off this monster. She needed a psych eval. I was so far behind because we weren't taught anything the entire year that I had to be put in remedial math classes very year after that. Then I was bullied & physically beaten by another student multiple times & no disciplinary action was taken. At the time they used to take certain kids away to discipline them with a paddle in another room. NOT a rumor, my mom had to call the school & tell them they didn't have permission to hit me. Lunch was white castle burgers in plastic wrap every day.

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.

Dr. Fowler is not a good person and the worst part is the students unless you want to get bullied there go ahead but I do not recommend you guys going to Calusa . It’s a bad school. And last year was worst trust me you do not want to go to that school. It’s really bad and the boys are super mean and...

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 have had nothing but an excellent experience at Calusa Prep. I recommend this to anyone looking for a faith based school with an excellent academic program.
