School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>5 2/16/2023My student had come from a middle school that tolerated bullying and treated the students like behavior problems, even before them having any. He hated school and didn''t want to return. I asked what his perfect high school would look like, and Phoenix Coding Academy ticked all his boxes. He has never witnessed any bullying or fights there. The entire school, teachers and staff included, feel more like a family than a public institution. The teachers recognize and encourage different learning styles and learners. I''m loath to write a good review because I don''t want the student population to get too great that it no longer feels like family. But, this school deserves the kudos.Review Phoenix Coding Academy.
