Open Quote Two of my children been with Imagine for 4 years. Teachers changing all the time, like 2, 3 teacher in the year. Even front desk ladys, cannt keep on counting how many left. I guess nobody wants to stay here. Buses always broken. Horrible, my children is not staying at Imagine anymore. Close Quote

Open Quote I can't say enough about how great it is at Imagine. We have been there for six years now. My daughter started in Pre-K and she loves her school. I enjoy being able to actively volunteer and partner with her teachers. They are also a national school of character, which really says something. They look at teaching the whole child and not just to a test. We couldn't be happier! Close Quote

Open Quote I have a niece and nephew who attend and they love it! The children wear a uniform, kakhi pants/capri/skort/skirt/shorts and navy shirts Pk-5 and red shirts 6-8 with the shool emblem on the shirt. They are able to wear a "Imagine Spirit" t-shirt on the first Friday of the month. So much easier getting them off to school in the AM. There is an "expectation of following directions and being respectful" through out the school. Since the school has been open, they have had specific "Character" emphasis, with each month the students learning about a specific character trait, and how that reflects on the student, school, and community. What a good program. The pk-k students learn about the "bucket principle" are you a dipper always taking things and using them or are you a giver by adding things and sharing. Interesting way to teach, but well received. There is daily communication from your childs teacher through the "planner" and parents must sign the planner to prove that they read it. The principal and other administrators know most every child by name--great, will see if that can continue since the school almost doubled in size this year. When the kids are in the community and have a school shirt on, and meet someone else with a school shirt in, they acknowledge each other and on most occasions, the parents will greet each other as well. It's nice, there is also an emphasis on manners. Academically the teachers, think outside the box, for activities in all subject areas and there is a very large emphasis on reading. The school offers the opportunity to students in 3-8 to participate in the Advanced Reading Challenge Program where they must read 25 books by mid-APril from the approved list. The books on the approved list are done by grade and many are award-winning books. The students who accomplished the goal last year were awarded a $100 savings bond. This school chooses to follow the public shool system calendar, another positive (as the private schools in town have their own calendar). Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
