Dec 11,2015When my daughter was in preschool, I started the daunting task of finding a school that would be challenging and still have the things that I grew up with, like art and music class. I love the moral focus too. This is a diverse school that respects differences and harnesses peace and everybody is friendly. There are plenty of extra curricular things to become involved in such as art club, math club, sports, all things a school kid would want to become involved in. My daughter is now in the fifth grade and I can't imagine sending her anywhere else. We have been satisfied with her success and happy with all the teachers and dean's. The principal is always in site and approachable. I strongly would recommend this school.

Dec 11,2015Great academically and the school is very diverse. Certain teachers have lost their luster for teaching but in general the staff loves the kids and their jobs. From what I heard Pricipal Kleiman really turned the school around.

Dec 11,2015My daughter had a horrible experience, but maybe it was just that particular class, teacher, and situation. My daughter did not like the school at all from day one.

Dec 11,2015I love the no-bullying tolerance and the effort put forth in the well-rounded education for our children! Great job! And the principal is outstanding! Their communication is on point regarding the status of our children and any key events held at the school! Kudos Fortis Academy! My son will be attending indefinitely!

Dec 11,2015Fortis has been a good option for our child. The special care for special needs children is unbeatable. However, our opinions of discipline vary greatly. Fortis tries to keep the student at school ad much as possible, understandably. However, certain issues, like hitting, kicking, spitting, and biting should be reprimanded more harshly. I have had multiple people try to talk me out of picking my child up when they have chosen to behave in such a manner. Overall, Fortis has lots of family oriented events and they truly try to keep the Fortis Family involved in the children's education. The deans, principal, and staff members really get to know the students and it is a much more welcoming environment for the children than most of the schools in the area.
