Eastland Performance Academy

I had many doubts about the school. But don’t judge the book by its cover. I went to parent teacher conference lastnight and seen how much each and every one of the teachers treat the students as if they were one of there own. The school might suck but the teachers genuinely care

This school is amazing! People love talking to my daughter and she loves being here! I rate this a 5/5

I Really Recommend this Place for your kiddos, I have like a lot of friends and it’s just amazing.

I love this school,my grandson goes there🧑🏽

My daughter started this school her kindergarten year 2014. On paper I loved everything about it. The hours, the fitness, and academics. Shortly after she started is when the trouble began. My daughter kept complaining about how come she had to wear a uniform and nobody else did. I found out that they had not been enforcing the uniform at all(actually a problem i dealt with all year) and each time id bring it up to staff id get some bull crap reason as to why they haven't been enforcing it. I paid my daughters school fees each semester and was told i didnt and they tried to make me pay again. My daughter came home one day with a huge knot/bruise on her forehead. The severity of it she should have been taking to the hospital. I didn't get a note or phone call. I got a hold of her teacher and she said that she had planned on calling me but got busy. The doors were supposed to open at 7:30. Several times we stood there until 7:45 waiting for them to be open. My daughter was also put on a school bus and taken off campus without my consent or knowledge. When i talked to the then principle i was told "we dont have to have your permission to take her" um yes you do. Lucky i didnt file kidnapping charges. Papers were never sent home in time to do anything about what the paper stated(ex: we would sometimes get a paper stating about when the next pto meeting is on the day that the metting was being held). When i would send papers in they would get lost going from teacher to office. When i did get to attend a pto meeting the few parents that were there shared my same concerns. But this was all last year and i was assured that it would be better this year so against my better judgment i sent my daughter back. The uniform is still an issue. I see kids out of uniform daily. Papers are still not being sent home in a timely manner. Again papers are getting lost between teacher and office. I went to pick up my child early one day for a dentist appointment I told the lady i was here to pick up my child (did give her name) and she just walked away without saying a word. I didnt know that she was going to get my child. About 7-8 minutes later when she got back to the office area she stood there talking to my daughter for 4-5 minutes. This whole time i asked my daughter twice to open the door that we had to go. And twice the lady told her not to that she was talking to her. When she did open the door i told the lady that for future reference let the parent know that you are going to get their child that i didnt know where she had went i thought she had just walked off. She said well i know who you are and i know who your daughter is. I said ok and left. I got a note sent home telling me about my daughters unexcused absence. The day they had down she was actually at school. So that brings me to today.I wont go into details but the lady at the front desk in the k-2 office needs to reevaluate herself. She got very rude and loud with me(my two small children were with me also). She lied about past encounters and acted like a complete idiot(for lack of better words). When you work with kids you have to control yourself. I have given the principles until friday to address the problem or i will be taken it above their heads. Thankfully we only have two more months left in this school. Bottom line is that this school has so much potential. they just need to get their stuff together.

The school is insufficiently ran. The kids are not exposed to the many opportunities and the educational materials available. There’s no structure. Morale is bad amongst the staff. The curriculums is almost nonexistent. There’s no social worker nurse. As well as substitute teachers and teachers assistance. This is a big mess. I would not have my grandchild attend the school.

I don’t mean to be rude but the school sucks I am a student there I have been going to the school since kindergarten I just go has grown in ways. And the school has also broken in ways I have experience the whole is a performance academy school life I’m not saying the school is bad but I’m not also saying it’s good I feel like all women and men should have more opportunities to work together not always be separated I feel like student should have more opportunities to accomplish their goalsI’m just really getting sick and tired of the food as well it sucks it’s so flipping bad I hate it the bathrooms are disgusting except in the morning the breakfast foods are disgusting.PLEASE FIX THIS NOW

We had a student at EPA for a year and a half. The classes were over crowded and the teachers seemed overwhelmed. Staff turnover was high. Poorly run and tends to err on the side of covering their interests instead of protecting the interests of the students.

Horrible experience. Mostly black children with all white teachers. Teachers look like young Barbie dolls and can't handle the load of children placed in thier care. Don't know any form of conflict resolution and their policies suck.

THIS SCHOOL SUCKS THE FOOD IS TERRIBLE AND IM CONSURNED ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE FOOD BECAUSE I AM A STUDENT THERE AND I FOUND SOEMTHING STRETCHY IN MY FOOD AND ALSO I HAVE A HUGE CONCERN ABOUT THE TEACHERS CAUSE SOME ARE VERY SEXIST WITH GIRLS AND ALSO BOYS AND I PERSONALLY THINK AS A STUDENT HERE STUDENTS SHOULD BE TREATED BETTER AND THE BATHROOMS ARE VERY GROSS JUST IN THE MORNINGS THEY ARE OK AND TEACHERS RECORD STUDENTS WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM STUDENT TEACHER OR PARENTS SOME STUDENTS DONT ALWAYS GET OPPERTUNITIES AND LET KIDS PUT IN GRADES AND SOME DUMB KID COULD PUT THE WRONG GRADE LIKE A KID COULD OF HAD A BorA BUT THEN A KID CHANGES IT TO A CD OR F

Absolutely hate this school, The principal's are very unprofessional. The classes are not small as stated on website. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL at ALL......

The teachers are incompetent. My son will be going to a new school next year.
