At Scholastic, I feel great about learning at my own pace and getting to try and learn hard lessons like algebra. I take notes easier, am smart about my own schedule, feel confident that I'm smart.

I've been going to Schelastic Academy since the beginning of the school when I was in first grade, so 9 years. I've grown to like school while I've been here. I have improved in work performance since I first started attending Schelastic. I can now write and learn with a deeper understanding for school. It has helped me to see the value of schoolwork from a personal level. The teachers and students support each other through our hard subjects and projects. I have become more motivated to get my work done so I don't have to be overloaded anymore.

Before Schelastic, my educational experience was terrible. Bullying was very bad. Now, I've been at Schelastic for 3 years and I feel relaxed and relieved to know everyone here is my friend because I can trust in everyone, which lets me chill down and get to know everyone. I am grateful because this school has put me in a better mood and I'm no longer bullied, plus I can express my artistic side.
