My son started with QCA in Sept. 2020, I can honestly say I love the school and the teachers. My son loves going to school everyday. His reading, writing and math skills have improved 100% since he started here. I plan to keep him here until he start High School. I would refer all my friends to this school. Well worth every the cost.

It is pretty good. They teach stuff like how to respect others. They teach kids how to pray with others during morning announcements and even during the day. I fully rate this school a 5+ or even more.
