Reviews of American Preparatory Academy - West Valley I Campus (School)

Diana Shepperson

Love the school , Love the staff, BEST SCHOOL CHOICE FOR OUR FAMILY! We have two current students and one that will hopefully start in 2018. Teachers actually care about the students and their success. They are strict, they do ask a lot from the students as well as the parents but you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor in the knowledge, success and accomplishments of our students.

Good School

At American Prep there is an enjoyable atmosphere for teaching, learning, and serving both from the faculty and the students.

Unclear and unfair application process to get in and then you get into a school with failing grades from the Utah state office of education. If this is a good school I would hate to see what the poor ones are like. They also have and create a severe traffic situation every morning and afternoon.

Teachers complain about everything, and will make the student the cause of a problem he/she was not in. School also serves horrible lunches which are cold and were left in the fridge for days.

If I could, I would give this school a zero stars. My son moved in the middle of the year and he has been bullied by the kids here. He was even hit and held down by other students. No one has done anything. They have overload these students with work and homework. My kid is behind in every subject and the Teacher literally said to me that SHE IS NOT SLOWING DOWN HER PASTE, that my son needs to keep up with her. No support from anyone. Teacher takes days to respond to an email. My son has tried to defend himself and he has gotten in trouble. If your kid has an IEP this is not the school for him/her they expect genius kids!

THE DISTRICT SHOULD TAKE OVER THIS SCHOOL NOT GOOD AT ALL. If i have the choice i will give them zero stars... They put way too much pressure on kids.. And so open anyone can walk in and take a kid.. The lunchbis bad.. And they say they never have money but they spend money in things they dont need.. They need more security.. They dont helo students that much is way to stressful for the kids.. U have to enjoy school...

Bad place to send your kids. They let their teachers pick on your kids. They also let your kid get bullied and blame your kid for being the problem. They don't look into any of your problems. It would be better to home school you kid/kids then send them to this school. My kid was not there for a week and he started having problems with the school. I was told he was a bully and I had to take work off to sit in class with him. I waisted my time just sitting there watching both his hometown teacher pick on him and the principal. All the other kids were not listening to the teacher and my kid was singled out by the teacher. He was not able to play outside with the other kids because his teacher would make him stay inside because he (couldn't keep his hands to himself).. So he played by himself most of the time so he didn't get in trouble by his teacher. If you want your kid to be bullied then send your kid to this place. Not only will the other kids pick on your kid, but the teachers will too!!!!!!!

The West Valley 1 & West Valley 2 campuses of APA are wonderful! They have very caring & well-educated administration, teachers, and staff. They do everything they can to help every child succeed. I do wish the teachers were paid more and appreciate the opportunity to donate to them through a foundation that APA has set up. My children have been pushed academically (without being overwhelmed) and have loved APA. My first child entered (via lottery - we tried for 2 years) in 4th grade and stayed through 9th grade. At that time, he decided to transfer to a public high school because he wanted to attend the Granite Technical Institute and take auto-body classes & swimming at the high school. The decision was also influenced by the only LDS seminary option being early morning (at a nearby high school about 1/2 mile away from APA) - and it was far enough away from our home to make the early morning schedule quite challenging. The environment is quite structured and if kids begin at APA in kindergarten, they'll learn organization and time management in addition to their core subjects. We also love the focus on music, art, physical education, & reading. If parents are not interested in being active participants in their child's school & education, this may not be the best choice. I've heard (from my children) about a few instances where students were asked to find another school (or they left voluntarily). My kids were happy to see the bullies & misbehaving kids go. Good behavior is modeled, taught, & expected! In our opinion, this is one of the top schools (charter or otherwise) in the area and we recommend it without reservation. We almost moved out of state a few years ago and one of the main factors in keeping us here was our experience at APA.

School is known to harass students and blame them for such causes they haven’t done. Do not recommend.

Beth Howard

Best thing to ever happen to our family!

I like their teaching method here. It is strict, but in a good way. They learn in the level they're in on each subject.
