Robert Treat Academy Charter School Reviews

 
My daughter attends Robert Treat Academy she is in the sixth grade and for the past six years I have no complaints. The teachers are great and they really care and the parents are involved with monthly meetings. Grading scale is a bit tough but it helps the students get ready for high schoo.

I am a student of the Rober Treat Academy. I have not been at the school fro long; only since second grade and I'm in eight now. This school has given me so many options for the future. The teachers and staff there are amazing and really know what they are doing. The school overall is great. Many students complain this school is too much but that's good. They are preparing us for the future. When I go off to high school and college I will look back and thank the Academy for all the options they've given me. This school is my second home and everyone there is my second family. I have every right to be extremly proud of my school. I'm glad I was one of the lucky ones to be accepted to the Academy.

I must admit that the school's mission is admirable and noble. In the beginning the school focused mainly on the students and the teachers were absolutely marvelous. Not not, things have changed a great deal latel and things are not the same. Things are not always as they semmm.

Robert Treat Academy is a school in which it's main focus is to score high on the tests. I feel as though these children also need to work on their social skills. There are barely any physical activities for them to do and when they have the opportunity to do so, (lunch) they are seated as if they were in jail! Communication with one another is also a key to success not just scores!

I'm a proud parent supporter of the Robert Treat Academy. My daughter has attended the school since Kindergarten and she loves to wake up early and go to school. (These children even go to school on Saturdays) That's dedication!!! The teachers are excellent. My favorite is Mrs. Romer and Mrs. Tiffener and Mr.Fein, they have done a wonderful job with the 6th graders this year. My daughter has build a strong foundation of knowledge and a fountain of good study habits that will help her accomplish her goals in becoming an Obstetrician through the efforts of the Robert Treat Academy!!! A special thank you to Lydia, Jessy and Cynthia.

I am a proud parent of not 1 but 3 children attending the Robert treat Academy. The whole staff its always on hand to deal with the children problems and help parents with everything in their power.The children that attend this school are so proud of themselves and their school.my kids love the school and the staff .

My daughter has been blessed by being in RTA. I feel she is very lucky to be experiencing the quality of all programs. RTA is great, but is lacking in fun time for the children at lunch time. All our kids need that free time, by either going out or even playing in the gym. Brains function better after a little play time.

Need more access to social activities

I applause RTA for all the teaching efforts, excellent test scores and of course for being the first one in the state. However, I have to agree with the rest..... Your curriculum offers no physical activities.... These kids are becoming the new RTA couch potatoes with a lot knowlege, though! RTA does not offer green spaces for these kids to be themselves for at least a half of hour.... To make matter worst the little space available its being converted to a music room!. These kids are getting bored and angry, please do something.... Give these kids more freedom with their schedules! Let them dress down on fridays as they would like to do and of course more physical education would do it too.

RTA is an excellent alternative to Newark Public Schools. Academically, they pride themselves in being the 'best' and constantly enforce that concept on the children. So, what self-image will the children have if they do not meet those standards? RTA is a traditional school setting disguised as progressive. Kindergaten barely has 'play time'. As a parent I would like to see more focus on making the kids well-rounded as oppose to just scoring high on state tests. What about courtesy week? conflict resolution training for the kids? daily physical activity? co-operative projects? child centered learning in order to promote self-directed learning? RTA can be great, but for now it is a work in progress.

Academically it's an excellent school. I encourage my child and so does the teachers, we work hand and hand. But, there is only one problem they do not promote physical activity (social skills)and/or extracurricular activity, there is no playground for the child to vent or socialize which is also very important, especially today with the obese problems. They need to work on that aspect and then it will be a well rounded school. This has been brought to their attention on many occasions by many concerned parents.

This is an excellent school! In the City of Newark public schools parents are not able to have their child(ren) attend a safe, secure, and professional academic environment like the Robert Treat Academy. I am an honored parent who really feels blessed that the State Lottery was able to select my child. We must remember, that education and discipline begins at home. The teachers, staff, and personnel at the Robert Treat Academy are extremely dedicated in making sure that our children are getting the 'best' education. They are preparing them for their future which is very competitive; therefore, I rate this school as a perfect #10. Parents need to become more involved and understand the importance of the curriculum given to our children--it's only going to help them do the best they are capable of doing in life.

An excellent school. However, there are litlte to no physical activities provided at this school. My point, a child must be nurtured not mentally but also physically.

This is an excellent school as far as building up a childs mind. This however is the place in which a child has to remain seated throughout the entire day of classes. What is the goal, to create smart couch potatoes? Or to develop a well rounded child both mentally, emotionally and physically.
