I chose Beacon Academy for my education because I was tired of regular public schools. There is too much nonsense that goes on, and you wouldn't believe it until you actually spend a day at the school; so many of the teachers don't care about the students. Then there are the students who don't care about their education. They act immature in the class room and take away time that the students who do care need. The bullying and illegal craziness that goes on is out of hand. The fact that the administrators and teachers can really discipline these kids does not help the situation. This is why I chose to take a different path and found Beacon Academy.
Beacon Academy is very efficient and prompt. The teachers are always on top of whatever help I need. They are always reminding me, and asking me how my class is going. The whole administration is always here for me, whenever. Everyone is so understanding and considerate of your situation whatever it may be. Beacon has given me a new found freedom in my life. I am able to fit in work, friends and school in my schedule without feeling overwhelmed. You can work at your own pace and gain your own understanding of things. I have also become more responsible; first in school, now in many aspects in my life.
I would recommend Beacon Academy to students because it's an experience that impacts your whole life. You learn honest dedication and hard work. It can get you ready for your future. There is no doubt you have to be a hard worker and self-motivated. You have to get your work done and stay on top of things. When it comes down to it many things in life come down to that. You must help yourself first before anyone else can help you. This can help you achieve whatever goal it is your working toward. You are able to get ahead or catch up. If you are worried about making friends, that's okay. Beacon Academy does fun social events. I have personally met so many good friends and teachers. When we get together now it's like being with my second family.
If you are ready to get a head start on your future and forget about all the foolishness you may be dealing with now in your regular school, give Beacon a chance. I can promise you won't regret it.
