Cabarrus Charter Academy Upper School

This is the second year Cabarrus Charter Academy upper school has been open and they've had their share of issues but with any new school there are things that need to be worked out in order for the school to reach optimal performance! There are some great teachers here and there were some who should have been closely evaluated before ever receiving a teaching license! We can see the positive changes that were instituted over the summer, so we are back to give it another chance!

I like this school. What sets it apart is the staff. The students have the pleasure of being taught by professionals who make up a uniquely caring staff. The staff knows the students and treats them as valued individuals. The staff practices a hands on approach with the students. Most of them know each student and their parents well, and seem to prioritize creating a positive rapport with parents.I also appreciate the life lessons in tolerance and cultural appreciation that attending such a diversity rich learning environment offers students here. One thing I've noticed is that the students smile. As trivial as that may seem, you can tell a lot based on this. As a former teacher, I can sense when students are thriving in their environment. It appears there is a great deal of that happening here.

This school needs a lot of help and guidance. They have changed administration too many times within the last 4-5 years. The lack of teacher support or communication with the parents is ridiculous. If I had o recommend this school to a new family I wouldn't.

This school is a good school considering the fact that it is only the second year it has been open. I am a student at the school so I know. You guys need to get more teachers and more students. I know you are trying but when you get to hire a teacher, you really should make sure they sign a paper saying that they are going to stay the whole year.
