Arts Academy Charter Middle School

Going to Arts Academy was the best decision of my life and my parents agree. It has given us so many opportunities to perform our arts, and the teachers help us to to be the best artists that we can be. Many of us have had amazing experiences because of the help from our teachers such as getting accepted into esteemed dancing teams, getting lead roles in many musicals, and even making it to the finals on the kids voice. The whole school including the students are very welcoming and support to ALL people. They have all become a family to me and I don't know what I would have done without them. I love them all so much. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND GOING TO THIS SCHOOL. P.S. everyone who gave bad reviews must have liked this school or they wouldn't have gone a whole or multiple years here.

Firstly I am in eighth grade instrumental. And this school is one of the best schools in the area. There are all these dumb reviews giving one star for no reason but believe me this school is really worth it. All the teachers are super nice and teach the students very well. The lunches are bad but there are some good ones mixed in . There is a great emphasis on arts here of course and in my opinion all the art teachers do their job excellently. Would definitely recommend.

Probably one of the best decisions I’ve made in life. I went from a public school, having no friends, being picked on all the time, and feeling different and ashamed, to feeling equal, having tons of friends, and I honestly have never been made fun of here. The teachers are so amazing and honestly feel somewhat like friends. The students are amazing. Only thing I have to say is the lunch is not the best, but the school cannot do anything about it. I feel like I definitely learn a lot and get challenged at this school. This is my last year here and I’m sad to leave.

This is Owen Wilburn. 4 years in the arts academy. This school has been the best experience in my life. I know some of the people who have made dumb 1 star reviews and they are the kids that are lazy and don't do anything. I loved all my teachers and how their lessons went, sure there is a little bit more homework, but it's worth it to be in this school. All my classmates in theatre are now basically apart of my family. Yes this school has jerks, students and some teachers, but if you can get by that, this school will make memories to last.

I am an alumni from this school and graduated last year. I believe that if i did not attend this school, i would not be where I am today. My teachers were always supportive and never shut down any creativity. There was never much stress added to my day adding an art form and I am thankful for that. Arts Academy gave me so many amazing opportunities to perform and it got me to get out of my box. There are so many memories that I could never forget about because of Arts Academy

I am an alumni that graduated last year. I went to this school 6-8 grade and it was an amazing experience. When I transferred here in 6th grade I was so nervous but the minute I walked through the doors I was greated with smiles and positivity from all the teachers. They are so supportive and ALWAYS in a good mood. They make you laugh all the time and make classtime fun. All the memories from this school are nothing but positive because it’s such a friendly community. The arts are challenging but in a good way. They push you to be the best and make sure you are the best you can be. There is such a strong support system with each major it’s always fun to be around. I completely recommend anyone who wants to pursue arts in their future or loves to have fun and is creative to come here.

I'm currently an 8th grader at this school and let me just say I would absolutely not be where I am today, when it comes to my dancing abilities, if I didn't go to this school. When I came to this school in 6th grade, I was exposed to so many different types of dance genres and moves that I never knew existed. In addition, students here get a plethora of opportunities to show off their talents to the outside world. All in all, after coming to this school, I could never imagine myself attending a regular school.

No I go to that school it is very rare for someone to be bullied. The academics are great just as good as salibury's. So don't say its a bad school and our principal is amazing and if you haven't noticed principals don't help with that problem the councilers do.I would love to know this girls name cause I'm in the original group of fifth graders and now I'm in seventh so yeah and also don't disscourage kids.

My daughter attends this school. I have zero complaints. I don’t have to worry about my daughter being bullied or getting into fights. Teachers are very good.

The greatest school I ever had. I attended 5-8 grade. I learned the basics of visual and many more advanced skills. For example I learned the priciples of art and design, as well as creative composition.

My son is in his 4th and last year at AACMS. Teachers have been very good and the teacher/student ratios are lower then public school. He started in theater, while that was fun he discovered his passion which is guitar. He went from never picking up a guitar to playing all kinds of music today and he has the highest respect for his guitar teacher Mr. Eisenhower. Right now he is learning 'Under the Milkyway Tonight" , "Africa" "Walk the Ocean" and the 8th grade students are writing a song. I listen with awe and pride for his accomplishments at 13 years old. If your child is interested in the arts this is a great school. Like most things in life, you get out what you put into the experience. It wouldn't work for my other 2 boys (one is all sports focused) but for my middle son school IS more interesting because he gets to spend 2 hours a day doing something he loves. He keeps his grades up because of the ARTS. The bus ride is 30 min from Palmer and maintaining friendships outside of school a challenge with kids spread out but otherwise great experience. Last year he went to Quebec with his French class for a 5 day trip and this year the graduationcclass is going to Baltimore for a day. We are very lucky to have found the school and these teachers who are also there because they share a love of the arts. Thank you AAMCS!

This was the best school I ever went to the teachers are supporting and helpful in every way possible. Everyone is loving and caring and will do anything to help you be successful in the future.

My daughter has been at the Charter School for 2 years and has an IEP. She is doing incredible...the teachers are amazing, fun, creative...all around super group. Wouldn't want her anywhere else.

For the first time ever my daughter loves going to school every day as a fifth grader she loves the teachers and amazing experiences.

A very nice school that taught the basics for me to succeed in my art.

good school legit i like it
