Apex started out as a quality charter school, but has slowly deterioated into a school where discipline is a low priority. My grandaughter, in the 8th grade, (she started there at 3rd grade) complains daily about how she is not learning anything because the teachers cannot control the classroom. Some students have not been taught the value of an education and continually disrupt class and disprect the teachers. The teachers appear to be helpless and just try to make it through the day. Over half of the class time is spent disciplining students who have little desire to learn anything. I'm waiting to see if the new principal will make a difference. The behavior problems didn't start with him. The same kind of thing was going on when Mr. Ward was there - old school or not.
The old principal is no longer here and that is sad. My daughter is in 2nd grade here and I am looking to send her to another school. The teachers are so standoffish like we're on the streets or something. I don't reccommend unless you're looking for convenience. The curriculum is fine, but if you want to communicate with staff and teachers effectively go somewhere else.
I Attended this school 6-8 grade and ,when i finally went to high school i was behind.The dean of students Mr.Kubiak who is no longer there was excellent and ws actually there for students .
I have to disagree. My son was going to a catholic school, and I removed him from that school because he was not learning anything, so I put him in Apex Academy, and my son's grades were excellent. He was introduced to things at Apex Academy that the catholic school was not even close to introducing him to. I like the principal, because he is old school. I enjoy the fact that they stand out in freezing cold weather to make sure that each child is in the classroom safely, and they even open car doors for the student. So I have nothing but good things to say about Apex Academy. They also have a excellent curriculum.
