"I am a former student of Acacia Academy, I came there in 2003 for eighth grade. I came to Acacia diagnosed dyslexic and with very little social skills after spending 8 years starting at kindergarten to seventh grade in a Catholic school that did nothing to help my failing grades or they way kids treated me. After a few months my grades went up, I had tones of friends and I actually wanted to go to school. I stayed through high school where I worked on my own level, exceeded all my own expectations and then helped others. When I went back to my doctor who diagnosed me he was amazed that I didn't show any signs that my dyslexia was slowing me down. I went to college, excelled in psychology, got great grades and did not need further assistance with learning other then what a normal college student would need. I am now a successful adult, who has worked for great companies likeWalt Disney and excelled in all my positions. If it were not for Acacia Academy, the caring staff and the attention I got I would probably be working a minimum wage job and not have any social skills. Acacia Academy saved my life and I will forever be thankful"

"The high school is not a good environment for an Asperger's/autism child. The behaviorally disordered kids will pick on them and the teachers will not or can not intervene. The school is also very low academically. There was a lot of open book tests and movie watching. The school's website states that the kids will be able to work on their own level, but in reality, my son's freshman class all worked at the same, low level. We withdrew our son from Acacia for these two reasons."
