Arma Dei Academy

If I could rate lower than this I would. This is a true review not from an employee or board member. My daughter attended this school for kindergarten and first grade. As a parent this to date is my biggest parenting regret. This school broke her in every way possible. She cried everyday going to school.

This school has a complete lack of competent leadership from the board through the administration. The lack of accountability as well as infrastructure to run a successful school is not there. At one point the board offered to pay for my daughters tutoring but never did. It was discovered on alternate testing that she did not have the skills she needed however the school said she did.

Additionally there is no synergy across curriculum. Each teacher does as he/she pleases which does not bode well for the students. Many teachers do not have a teaching degree or license. If you needed medical attention you would not go to a person who was passionate about medicine you would go to a doctor. If I’m spending a lot of money a year on education I want qualified people teaching my kids. This does not have the qualified people it needs. Report cards are a joke. They do not accurately and consistently evaluate students. They are confusing and very subjective.

This was the worst decision we have ever made. Our daughter did outside testing and tested on the gifted side however she did not learn in the box of copying things off the board and the box that Arma Dei forces her into. We are so grateful to not be there anymore as even in recent weeks the policy changes have been happening at this school making it worse not better. If this is what Christians look like we do not want any part of it. If we can save just one person from attending this school from this review it was successful. There are not enough words for our dissatisfaction and pure disgust for this school.
