Because they really care about each child's needs and are willing to work with both the parents and children to provide the best education possible.
I attended PACHS all four years for high school, and I am currently enrolled at West Chester University with a current GPA of 3.6. I believe there is more to high school than test scores, and that the students will take from this school exactly what they put into it. PACHS is like a family, your not just a number like every other school in the area. The teachers are some of the best and they are willing to go that extra mile. Walking down the hallways everyone knows your name, and cares about you. I can honestly say PACHS helped shape who I am today, and I am proud that now my siblings have the same chance that I did.
My daughter is a new 6th grade student at the philadelphia academy charter. Let me tell you that all of my daughter's teachers are wonderful and accomadating. I f the child needs help in a subject they'll give it to you and if the child is above in certainsubjects they'll challange you.
I finially decided to pull my son out of this school today. This is a special needs school. Not a school for kids to be prepared for college... I am very unsatified with the academic quality in Pach. They need to catch up with other schools, and stop worrying about ridiciculous disipline issues and focus on Academics. I would not advise waiting on a waiting list for this school as it is not worth the wait. The public schools in the area are a much better alternative to this facilty. They have no AP classes which is what my son need so he is bored, and his grades have dropped to failing, becasue he is bored!!! There are also no sports to spreak of, to help with college scholarships. The school is also on academic probation as stated by them for not making adequate progess...
