"I was in tears at the 8th grade graduation. There was such a great feeling of caring for the students...because it's a small school, they really get to know the kids, and staff and teachers REALLY care, not only about academic success but how the kid is doing overall. Kids who aren't "cool" are accepted and recognized here for their unique achievements in a way I've never seen at another school. Talking with other parents afterwards, their kids also are thiving in this atmosphere. This school brings out the best in a kid and the expectations are high. A girl gave a speech about the school and it was so touching and sincere. She has been motivated here to go from an okay student to a really good one. Of course no school is going to be successful with every single kid, but from what I've seen, the vast majority of kids here thrive. They are doing a lot of renovation to the dorms, and the campus is really beautiful. No metal roofs and cinderblock buildings."

"our son just finished 6th grade at Florida Air Academy. Teachers are caring, professional and go out of there way to help all kids and communicate with parents. Sports, activities such as their recent trip to St. Augustine all made his experience and ours extraordinary. We are thrilled. He will be back for 7th grade. Thank you FAA!"

"We enrolled our daughter at FLAIR for the 2011 summer program after her seventh grade in public school. After five weeks at FLAIR, her interests were expanded and her youthful behavior was noticeably improved. She asked to return for her eighth grade year. Although we were concerned about her being away from home, after careful consideration, we agreed. Now, after completing her eighth grade at FLAIR, she has gained self-esteem and self-discipline that she was unable to acquire while living at home and attending public school. Her academic performance and overall attitude are dramatically improving. She flourishes in the small classes and individual attention. We are pleased that FLAIR keeps us well informed about her progress via online grade information. If she fails to turn-in homework, we are alerted. She is given mandatory teacher help, and she is also required to attend supervised study hall to complete her missing assignment. Needless to say, she has become consistent in turning her homework in. We believe that FLAIR provides the much needed structure and camaraderie that a teenager needs while providing high quality educational experiences."

"My son attended FAA from 8th-12th grade; graduating as Valedictorian with full Bright Futures. Due to small classes, dedicated staff my son has become a successful, self-motivated young man. He had the opportunity of making lasting relationships with students from around the world and is still in contact with his friends from Korea, Russia and Puerto Rico. My daughter currently attends Florida Air Academy. She wanted to attend FAA from the time her brother attended. She had to wait until FAA went co-ed (2005) and until she was old enough. She currently is in 8th grade and has the opportunity to also take some high school honor classes. She also enjoys having friends literally from around the world. As you can see FAA is not a "BAD KID" school. In fact both my kids "wanted to attend" FAA and are true success stories. I couldn't imagine them going anywhere else. We have many students here that are true success stories...the students at FAA want to be at FAA."
