Olney Adventist Preparatory Reviews

 
I was quite surprised by the perspectives expressed in the April 29, 2008 and September 10, 2007 reviews. Our family is new to Olney Adventist Preparatory, but everything we've experienced so far indicates that the school is superbly managed, with high parental involvement and attention to students' safety and wellbeing. The principle strikes us as a person with a vision for the school and a profound love of what she is doing, who supports her staff well (a good sign as this isn't always the case). The grounds, while modest, are absolutely clean and everything is in good order. I'll post another review in some months after we've become more involved with the school, and observed how our son is doing and the kind of education he seems to be getting.

Poor structure, teachers not qualified enough, not enough structure in classrooms, no discipline, parents urged strongly NOT to send their children here. I took my child out in the 5th grade because she was subjected to poor education when we were made to pay for private quality education.

The rating and comment given on 9/10/07 are far from the truth. In fact, I can only guess that the parent disagreed with some policy and decided to vent. In our experience the school (lower level) has been excellent. Teachers are well trained, hands on, and bring out the best in every student. Although we are biased, we believe it's the best private school in the area.

School is very poorly managed and academics are not up to par for a private school; I have 3 children who attended, 2 for 2 years and 1 for 6.

We have two children at this school. We have been extremely pleased with the lower school. It is excellent in all ways! The teachers tune in to the capabilities of each child and help them excel. The child(ren) are allowed to move on academically if they show they are able. The teachers spend one on one time and really go 'above and beyond.' We have one child in 5th this year and moving into the middle school next year. We are holding off opinion on the middle school until we have experienced it for ourselves.

Olney Prep has a top notch lower school! Their upper school is very marginal at best. Three of our four children have gone there including two that are graduates. We have opted not to put our fourth child there due to serious concerns over the upper school's problems.
