My child just completed his kindergarten year, and to look back on the year it was an amazing journey. The kindergarten teachers prepare the students well, encourage them to do their best, and to be responsible individuals for their thoughts words and actions. My son flourished this year, and we are eagerly awaiting the first grade experience. This school is top notch, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, caring environment that stresses the importance of academics.

My child just completed 4th grade and had an excellent year (as usual). The fourth grade teachers are fantastic.

My child has attended AoT Elementary School since her kindergarten year and next year she will be entering the 5th grade. What a terrific school! I feel the school has given her the foundation which will help her succeed in middle school, highschool, college and beyond. In addition, this school has the best teachers around and an administrative staff that really cares about the students. I couldn't ask for anything more. I know our school will be experiencing some changes in the upcoming years, but I am extremely confident they will not affect the quality of education my child will receive. I believe these changes will make us an even stronger community. Thank you AoT staff!!!!

I have written a previous review and I think gave the school more credit than it deserves. The principal is very condescending and talks down to parents. There are also some teachers that will remind you of how 'educated' they are which will leave you pretty much feeling stupid if you don't have a college degree to back up your argument. Unfortunately we are stuck, do I put the kids in TUSD and take a chance that the budget cuts will take away important aspects in school, or do I stay and put up with the Academy. I do not agree with bringing the middle school to our campus, the playground is being comprimised in order to allow for the new classrooms. And..... they decided to bring in an extra 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade class, I can't imagine another 60 cars in that parkinglot.
