I have read over some criticism of the principal at this school and I must say that I am in shock. The current principal at this school is beyond amazing. My sons do nothing but brag on the teachers and staff of this school. I currently have two children here and I just love it. I have also seen show bad reviews on the education level at this establishment. I must say that I am a private school graduate myself. I also was a dean list student of a private college. My eldest son is an honor roll student of one of the oldest Catholic schools in our area. The education that my younger children are recieving at Terrytown Academy is more then approiate for their grade level. The classes are small and very personable. They nuture children personalities as well as develope much needed study skills for the future. In addition to this they have taught my sons the importance of time management. This is something that I appreciate a great deal. They help children to believe in themselves and to never give up even when things get hard. They do not like to see any child fail. When my middle son needed help with maturing and developing his indepence in academics they were there for him like a family. His previous school offered anything but this support. I guess it is easy to appreciate these teachers knowing that there are so many who just want to collect a paycheck. My famlies academic success record runs long and now thanks to the staff at Terrytown Academy I have complete confidence that my children will keep that alive.
