HPA is a remarkable school where parents can feel confident in the education and care their children receive. The administrators and teachers nurture each child as if they were their own, creating a warm and supportive environment. With small class sizes, an enriching curriculum, and a plethora of activities for both students and families throughout the year, HPA fosters a strong sense of community. This intimate school truly feels like a big family, and we are so grateful to be a part of it.

We absolutely love Highpoint Academy! It has been everything we hoped for and more. The school truly feels like an extension of our family. From the principal to the admin, teachers, and staff—everyone knows us and our children by name, creating such a warm and welcoming environment.What truly sets Highpoint apart is the incredible sense of community they foster. Parents are encouraged to actively participate, making us a vital part of our children’s education, development, and growth. It’s amazing to see how invested everyone is in the success and well-being of each student.Switching to Highpoint Academy was one of the best decisions we’ve made for our family, and we’re so excited for the years ahead filled with learning, family activities, and wonderful memories. We couldn’t be happier!

Highpoint is truly as good as it seems. The school has surpassed all our expectations. They respect different beliefs, which is important for our family. My child is thriving, learning, playing. She isn’t stressed from school like her older sister was in kinder. She gets a lot of time outdoors. Highpoint really does feel like a family.

This is the second year for my son in HighPoint. Like all parents, the safety and peace of mind of their children is the most important thing. I can tell you that I feel very calm every day when I leave my son at this wonderful school. I really recommend HighPoint.

This is my first year teaching at Highpoint and I can honestly say it fulfilled my dreams and goals of what a school is supposed to be like. Highpoint is an amazing school with exceptional students and staff. They say it all starts with how a teacher treats their students and that is exactly what Highpoint continues to prove. At this school, the teachers care and respect every student for their individuality and their uniqueness. Highpoint is an overall prodigious school because of how much they care for their student's needs. I love working for a school that not only teaches students academics but also helps build their character.

As a faculty member of Highpoint Academy (Main Campus) for several years, I can attest to the fact that we are a tiny hidden gem! Highpoint prioritizes the needs of parents and students, while still focusing on academics. I love my students so much. They are the heart of our school. There is truly something so special about being able to see them grow up. Highpoint has given me a place to help my Middle Schoolers fall in love with ELA during some of their most formative years. We are more than a school, we are a safe place for our kids to learn, have fun, and grow. I’m forever grateful for the chance to work in one of the few private, small and loving schools in our district.

I attended this school and have only great things to say about my experience. I have gone back to visit and have seen some of my same teachers and staff. The simple fact that the employee turn over is low says a lot about the community and culture of this school. Someone is doing something right. Because of its size, it allows for an excellent lower student to teacher ratio and I remember having easier access to my teachers if i had questions or if i needed additional help one on one. The extra curricular activities were great and inclusive. I never experienced bullying or saw it in my grade. Finally, although it is a small school, the sense of "family like" is inevitable when spending years upon years with almost the same classmates. These classmates are lifelong friends and a part of my daily personal and professional sphere. That said however, the education and private school discipline prepared me for the next stage of a demanding highschool and university. I can honestly say that Highpoint Academy is an excellent choice when looking for a private school that offers everything you need for your child/children.

It really depends the campus. One of my siblings has attended the coral way campus for almost half her life. Ever since she went there, her academics and cognitive functions have exelled. The staff and teachers are extremely kind and involved in their students educations, and are incredible at dealing with disabled children. Overall, the Coral Way campus is excellent for not only disabled children, but all children. Now on the other hand, the main campus of highpoint is absolutely horrific. The staff is decent, but many teachers lack basic teaching skills. The health and ELA teachers (middle school) are incredible, and are very involved in their students grades and academics. The special area teachers are also decent. But as for science, geography and math, some of the most important subjects for a student to learn, the teachers are TERRIBLE. The math teacher is openly rude and insulting to her students. She expects students to NEVER ask questions or engage, and is extremely unfair to those who are struggling in her class. She is NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST involved in her students grades and honestly seems like she couldnt care less if you failed. And as for science, the teacher is flat out sexist. Now, not the sexist youd assume. she is extremely disrespectful and unfair to her male students while she overworks her female students. She blames her class for her not being able to work, yet she has all the time to complain to other teachers about how horrible her class is. To add on to the terribleness, the students are complete bullies. Male students will HARASS female students, not sexually (most of the time), but about their appearance, mental health, personalities, etc. And what does staff do about it? Nothing. Overall, DO NOT send your child to the main campus. send them to the coral way campus. it is EXTRAORDINARY compared to its inferior other half.

We’ve been with Highpoint for 2 full years now and my only complaint is that they don’t have a High School so my daughters could stay longer at this wonderful school

Highpoint is a wonderful private school that has really small student-teacher ratios, very caring Teachers and a great Administration. My oldest graduated from Highpoint many years ago and he's in UM Medical School. Of course, I brought my daughter to Highpoint this year and she's doing great. Love this school!

I can't rave enough about this school. I'm so happy to be a part of a family outside of my own. Everyone is so helpful and my son enjoys his schools day and that alone is the most important thing to me. I'm looking forward to many more years of being part of this school.
