Paideia Academy

PS Muhammad: I have read many many comments about Paideia Academy and how horrible it is. I would like ask those persons what did they do to help improve the quality of their child(ren) educational experience?  How many hours did they spent with their child(ren) outside the classroom with reading and teaching good morals and values.  Parent must understand that they are their childrens first teacher.  They must establish the importance of education in their homes. Parents must set the standards. They should accept responsibility for their child(ren)'s academic performance and not just send them to school and expect someone else to do it without offering any support.

I commend the Paideia Faculty and Staff for their efforts.  If the people who complain about the school were truly interested in the students success, they would have offered help instead of criticizing an institution that worked with the students they were given and they did not give up on them.

I have written letters to the 2009-2010 sponsor and the administation about the school's inability to meet the academic needs of many of its students and the lack supervision to  maintain a safe environment for all of the students on the school grounds and the bus.  Children have been seriously injured.  Teachers have demonstrated a lack of concern about the impact their words have on students when they belittle them in fornt of other teachers and students.  I feel that the schools need to be closed so they will not continue to do what may be irreparable harm to children.  

They were to close, but I understand they have a new sponsor.  I would like to know what college will be their 2010-11 sponsor.  June 14, 2010  Retired Teacher
