Does anyone have experience with New Vistas Academy? We are considering putting our
son there next year.

Thanks,
Janet

Have no experience with it,

Have no experience with it, actually have never heard of it. However, if it's a charter type of school I caution you as the teachers aren't required to be certified with teaching degrees. For example a 4th grade teacher can hold a BA in anything basically, but still be teaching .... teachers teaching elementary school could be degreed in history and have no elementary teaching experience or education behind their belt. Just an FYI .....

No, where is it?

It's not a charter school, but an amazing and very challenging private school. A very good friend of mine teaches 3rd grade there. I will be putting my son there for grade school. They also have an outstanding preschool.

It's in Chandler, right?

It's in Chandler, right? I've heard that it's incredibly strict, piles on the work, and lacks diversity (the majority of the students' families are from India).
