Salem Academy Charter School has been a great fit for my son. He has always had good grades, but this year has been especially positive because of his teacher, Mr. Omar Gonzalez. My son often tells me how much he appreciates his teacher's encouragement to do his best every day. I also really value the school's diversity. The one area I think could improve is the cafeteria food. My son doesn't like it, so I end up making his meals at home daily. Overall, I believe Salem Academy Charter School is a good school.
