| - My son was an honors student in public school. We decided that public school was just not the place for him due to how easy everything seemed to come for him. We were a little late in the enrollment process, and were treated as if we were the worst parents on the planet because of it (even though he was still enrolled in public school just in case).
First, I walked into Paragon Science Academy to get him enrolled and the place was filthy!! Granted we did this over the summer. However, I had gone to my daughters public school that very same day to make sure that we were all set to start, and everything was spotless and organized. When I had walked into Paragon, and floors were filthy, there was a cockroach on the floor, and there were boxes stacked to the ceiling of the lobby. Can we say un-organized?
Second, when I walked up to the sliding window to get the enrollment process going, the girl who was sitting behind the counter was so rude!! She had to ask everyone else what was going on, and didn't know anything. The amount of information they required to get him enrolled was also ridiculous, but I had everything requested. When I asked about uniforms, she didn't even know anything regarding that.
There was some other stuff that took place, but to skip ahead...
My son had missed the first two days of school because of lack of organization. The day that he was supposed to start, we had gone in and no-one could give me any information. The school was still filthy, and the floors looked the same (minus the cockroach). (Cleanliness is very important to me, especially in a private school.) We immediately went and toured Summit School of Ahwatukee, which is now where he goes. They didn't require near as much to enroll, were VERY friendly, respectful, and expedited enrollment for us. The place is immaculate, and my son was able to start the first day of school. I am paying for a private education, and my son deserves the best. Paragon Science Academy is not it.
