Research Community Academy of Philadelphia Charter School charter Schools in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

“I have to children at this school both are in elementary school so far I had no complaints.The school security its great I do not worry about my kids security at all. I also love the fact that the teachers are caring and I know they are there because the love to teach this reflects on my kids attitude toward school. This school also worries and monitor kids absences if my kids is out of school for one day they will not hesitate to call and you and find out the reason with your kids its absent (this will come in handy for highschooler parents you will not have to worry about your kid cutting class because as soon as the class assistance is taken and your kids its not in they will contact you) Great Haa!!”

“I have 2 daughters in this school and they came in the middle of the year. I think that the teachers are excllent with working with me to get my children on track and I think highly of the school. I love the uniforms and the safety that takes place in this school. You always have to worry about your children getting to and from school but once they are in the school I don't worry as much. The teachers seem to care about the students but as parents we must do our part and make sure the children are doing what is expected of them.”

“My daughter is more confindent due to her surroundings and loves to learn more because this school allows her to make changes for now and for her future, that will guide her in success and inner strenght.”

“Community Academy has been instrumental in the success of my child. My child had many difficulties in the regular public school setting and was not academically or socially challenged. CAP has helped my child reach her full potential by having wonderful school programs, in-house support from all faculty and staff. Thank you Mr. Proietta for creating such a wonderful place!”

“This school prides itself on discipline and safety. They do have a security staff, medal detectors for the main entrance and security cameras. Their PSSA scores are ridiculously low throughout the school. They do not have a gifted program, but your child can still be tested through the Philadelphia School District at no charge to the parent. The school also does not have any crossing guards and unlike some other charter schools the staff does not assist in crossing the children.”

“Community academy is a great school for discipline, and helping your kids get ready for the future with all the new technology our children need to be prepare for any and every possiblie carer in the future from K-12 they help your child grow to understand that they can be anything they want to be. I'm glad that my children get to go to the school that I graudated from as well.”

“This school is a great environment for children of the high school age.”

“My major concern with this school is the scores of PSSA testing they are very low. These scores are too low so my question is WHY. The school is very strict with uniforms and discipline so why not become more concern on teaching these children so they can score higher on these exams.”

“My daughter has gone to Community Academy since Kindergarden. CAP (Community Academy of Philadelphia) has a great discipline and academic program. They have high standards of discipline and expect all students as well as parents to follow the rules. The teachers and staff I have had the pleasure of interacting with are qualified, attentive, fair and friendly. They encourage involvement and challenge students as well as parents to exceed their full potential without singleing anyone out in the process. They have a great sense of what it takes to teach the children of today and they do a wonderful job.”
