Jefferson Charter Academy Senior High School

Posted May 10, 2007

This is a great school. We have had all four of our children attend this campus. (K-12) We are quite pleased with the quality of the education that they have received. As for homework, Time Management is a part of life, a part that is emphasized. As an involved parent, I know that time is given to complete the assignments, but some students feel it s better spent as a social hour(s). Yes there is homework and assignments to complete. (Gasp) Life goes on and those that learn that managing the minutes of your day, simply leads to a more successful and prosperous life. A quite simple fact of life. This is an academically rigorous school period. Read the previous sentences again. Sports are secondary to education, as it should be. (How many people do you know that get paid to play sports?) As in everything what you put into it is what you get out of it. The school is a tool that can help your child succeed, but it will not do your job. Academics and intelligence are valued here, (just like in the real world of work). All around this is a school for those that value an academically enriched education. Since it is a small school most of the students who start will have friends until they graduate. JA is a safe, secure and comfortable operation. Parents are welcomed and encouraged to become involved in the school. Peer pressure is present, but the pressure is to excel and be the best you can be. But as with life Choices have consequences. Great school for those who value, understand and chose success.
