School Reviews

Hess Academy is an outstanding school that provides a well-rounded education to students in Pre-K through 8th grade. My three children have attended the school for several years now and have had an incredible experience. The pre-K program is excellent and my youngest child thrives in the nurturing and stimulating environment. The 5th-grade curriculum is challenging and engaging, and my middle child is excelling academically. The 8th-grade program is rigorous and prepares students well for high school. The administrative staff and teachers at Hess Academy are exceptional. They are dedicated, knowledgeable, and truly care about the well-being and success of each student. They are always available to answer any questions or concerns that I have and are quick to respond. The teachers create an inclusive and positive learning environment for all students and provide individualized instruction to support the needs of each child. Overall, I highly recommend Hess Academy to any family looking for a high-quality education for their child. It has been an amazing experience for my family and I am confident that my children will be well-prepared for the future.
