Review for Austin Peace Academy, Austin, TX, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

Having been affiliated with Austin Peace Academy for quite some time, I can say that it has come a long way. There have been many improvements over time, and they are still necessarily being made. APA became an accredited school within a reasonable period due to the diligence of all concerned parties. There was, and still is, a burning desire to see the school flourish in a way that better serves the community at large. At its helm are administrators who have demonstrated time and again, a broad vision for what APA should offer each and every student who attends. They have plotted a course for the success of its graduates that has instilled the confidence needed to meet most challenges that they'll face later on in life. Highly qualified and dedicated teachers are all on board with the same aim - student success. Students further benefit from, not only concerned teachers and staff, but from a reassuring environment in which to work and safely express themselves. They are encouraged to be creative in all disciplines, including Art; to be critical or abstract thinkers in classes like Math and Debate; to be decision makers as they make conscientious choices about how best to interact and compete with each other, and all others, as they engage in both intra-curricular and extracurricular events; and to connect those conscientious choices to the greater, more lasting goal of the hereafter. To date, I've witnessed several graduations, including those of two of my children. It's simply amazing to see what a good educational foundation has done for each child. They came away with the skills necessary to succeed at the next level. If asked if I'd send my kids to Austin Peace Academy if I had it to do again, I'd say 'Most definitely'.
