School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>3 7/21/2021NOTE: SOME THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE ENROLLING YOUR CHILD IN THIS SCHOOL ARE THINGS YOU NEED TO CONSIDER:1.) Very patriotic: If you are acceptable and okay about this then by all means go ahead, but if an exceptionally patriotic and classical learning algorithm isn''t your thing then please think about that before letting your child attend this school. Learning about American history is great, but be warned, the subject is this school's main focus. Thus the name ''John Adams Academy''. Much of this school's architectural features are also American-sized (the layout of the building, the pictures of presidents, and patriotic paintings on the walls). There have been many references to patriotism throughout the school year, so again, if this is not your thing then maybe you should reconsider. 2.) A white-centered school: If you are looking for diversity in race and identity in this school, know that that is probably not what you''re going to get. Not sure if that is because of the area or the American message the school is trying to deliver, but take that into accountability if diversity is one of your top priorities. You can find students of color every once in a while, but there are usually only two or three POC students in each class. 3.) This school requires most of it''s students (I know for sure 6-12) to memorize and recite it''s ten core values every morning, such as: 1.) Appreciation of our national heritage 2.) Public and private virtue 3.) Emphasis on mentors and classics 4.) Scholar empowered learning 5.) Fostering creativity and entrepreneurial spirit 6.) High standards of academic excellence 7.) Modeling what we teach 8.) Abundance mentality 9.) Building a culture of greatness 10.) Self governance, personal responsibility and accountability4.) Flag Ceremonies are every once in a while, where kids usually stand outside, listen to a speech or two from a teacher, raise the flag, and do the pledge there. Sometimes children also sing patriotic songs in Leadership.5.) Uniforms: One of the main things that stands out about this school is the uniform policy. Uniforms are required, only with exceptions for things such as spirit days or class rewards (option of jeans for the day, etc.). For all age groups, a polo shirt is usually $25, a skirt $32-$40, and khakis and shorts $25-$30. You also have the choice to purchase outerwear and accessories. Black shoes (with no white toes) are definitely something your child should own in their closet.6.) As of this year, there are not many clubs/activities available, since this is a relatively newer campus. This review will age so it might be different in the future but as of right now there''s not a very large selection of activities. No band/drama club. 7.) Distance learning can be stressful and a lot harder when there are kids in person. It''s hard for the teachers who video call in class to focus on two groups at once. P.E. is very complicated. 7-8th graders used a BYU online learning program for P.E. and Latin so be aware that if your child will be using the program it is complicated and the student will most likely be stressed out and possibly disorganized. For distance learning alone, please try to work on procrastination with your child because it is not the same environment as in-person. Doing daily checkups on your kid is a good way to go. DEFINITE PROS:1.) From my experience the teachers are nice and respectful while constructing discipline and many are not afraid to put their foot down.2.) I can tell they try to learn smarter, not harder. This does not mean that (for upperclassmen) they lack homework. 3.) Some laid-back, smart and funny teachers4.) Teachers not very open about religious/political views, they like students to think for themselves. 5.) The main focus is on what's best for the kids6.) Teachers usually have a good relationship with the kids7.) You get a good education out of one year. A lot of information. 8.) Students are mainly nice and respectfulThank you!
