Coral Academy of Science

I was very hesitant to allowing my son to transfer to this school because school is a struggle for him (he is a younger 2^nd grader). Knowing this was a college-​prep, STEM-​involved school I was afraid he would fall even more behind. I was very pleasantly surprised that his teacher noticed his struggle early-​on (within the first couple weeks of school starting) and offered to tutor him once a week to get him caught up to the rest of the class. I have noticed SIGNIFICANT improvement in his grades and his self-​esteem when it comes to his work. Mrs. Messenger channeled his strengths and helps him learn other ways of looking at things. I love the communication I get from her and the rest of the staff. It genuinely feels like everyone cares for my child and wants to help him succeed in every aspect of his learning experience here. I absolutely LOVE Coral Academy and I truly believe it was the best decision regarding my son’s education.

My daughter has been coming here for almost 2 years and although it is a good school it has its deficiencies. One of those being that the management team is not very organized and there is not a whole lot of communication between parents and teachers. On second thought maybe there is some type of communication but it just seems like the parents are always the last to know.
Also, my wife likes the fact that public schools have a library but of course the charter schools do not. Although we take our daughter to the public library instead I’m just saying that it would be nice for my daughter to be able to go to check out books herself at the school library. I guess it’s just something we have to live with cause we don’t want her going to the public schools around here. Just too much overcrowding and it will get worse before it gets better.
