I attened my first year at AIMS and it was fantastic. I loved the cirriculum that was taught at AIMS. I now attend 7th grade at AIMS and its even better than last year. The teachers are better and if i need help in any subject the teachers are always there to help. The downfall on the school was the 15 minutes of lunch studing takes up my whole lunch period, the summer projects are ridiculous why should we have to do work on are summer break, including winter and spring breaks. But overall the school is excellent and i will be attending next year for 8th. Thanks to Ms. Arner (6th grade science teacher) and so far Ms. Clark for challenging me in thinking critically. AIMS rocks!!!

My son has completed his first year at Arts Impact and my husband, son and myself love the school. It would be very helpful for the teachers to keep the online web site up to date. Thank you Mrs. Roth and Mrs. Crook for doing so. The school does need more parent involvement.

I have had very mixed feelings about this school in the 3 years my son has attended. My son is a visual artist, and has had success in the art classes. Some of his teachers have been fantastic, including the Gifted/Talented resource teacher and the 8th grade team. If you want communication with the teachers you have to initiate it, and you have to be persistently in their faces (or in their email!) to get responses from most of the teachers. The biggest problem I've seen is the change in administration at the beginning of the 07-08 school year. It is nearly impossible to get an audience with the principal. Most of her comm. with the parents is about dress code. There is no school-wide calendar so events often overlap. She hasn't attended the anti-bullying workshops brought in by the PTA. This is not the school it once was.
