I have two children who currently attend Tidewater Academy. We love the school. It is a safe, nurturing, caring, and academically thriving educational environment. ---I have to say that I completely disagree with the individual who wrote the July 6 review. A school can try to help the child to the best of its ability, but it is ultimately the responsibility of the parent to correct behavior.
I have to say that I am very disappointed with the treatment of my son at Tidewater Academy. Some very picky things were held against him and it was like they just gave up and blamed him as a behavior problem. He never hurt anyone or caused any school damaged but you would have thought he was the worst child at the school. It's sad when they lose sight and want to blame the child instead of helping. Children are not the same as it was in the 70's & 80's and we have to learn how to adapt to that and help them. They pride themselves and the best and I truly feel the school is not good enough to use that statement. If you are not in the right tax bracket your child will suffer.
Tidewater Academy has been a nurturing environment for my children. My oldest daughter would have never graduated had we not moved her to Tidewater. She embraced by the staff where she felt loved and cared for. My daughter the D/C student graduated on the A/B Honor Roll. I huge accomplishment for her. My middle daughter has been challenged by the curriculum as well encouraged to be a good citizen. She has been given academic challenges that have already been proven by her recent stellar SAT scores as a Sophomore. She has been encouraged and challenged by other peers, not only academically, but in sports too. Moving my children to this school was one of the best decisions I have made.
