These charter schools are not concerned wtih the wellbeing of children. Discipline, punishment, and yelling are the methods of behavior management here. Kids can't learn because classrooms are out of control due to teachers not having the skills or support needed to manage their classrooms. Principals and teachers encourage parents to retain students who do not make academic growth and not score high on tests in order to keep test scores high and not provide students with the help they need. Retention is a practice that is research have overwhelmingly shown to be ineffective. Don't send your kids here. You will regret it.

Our Child has been with Parma Community Schools since Kindergarten. She is a Honor Roll student with absolutely no behavior issues. She has been Bullied since the beginning of the school year. We have brought it to the attention of the new principal and the teachers. They do not return calls, and do nothing about the bullying in this school. I have spoken to many parents who tell me they have had the same issues with bullying and had to pull their kids. Stay away from Constellation Schools

Bullying is the acceptable norm in the 6th grade class this year. Some good teachers and some that are awful. Principal needs to be leaving, as he is!

Overall, my son is happy. It has been better than his former private school. I do think I want something different for High School for him.

All though there are a few teachers I like they do not bring the school up as a whole. The bad's outweigh the goods in this situation. There are too many teachers that simply don't do their jobs effectively. I do not look forward to having to stay here past the 8th grade because if I do have to deal with teachers like this for my 4 years of high school I wont be able to deal with them.

So far, very happy with Parma Community Schools. Appears progress is regularly made and much is being learned. Teachers have been excellent and very responsive. Hopefully this will continue to be the case.

The school was fine in the elementary stage, if they had kept the students who were brought in the system up through the high school, it would be a better environment for middle/high school. They have welcomed with open arms all the children who cannot function and are thrown out of other schools, who did not come up with the character traits they instill in the elementary grades.. There is a rough transition from 3rd-4th grade, the children are ill prepared for the middle school. Special education is lacking leadership and direction. My child has been assaulted by other children more than one time. There are a few really dedicated teachers, just a few at the high school level. They don't keep staff long enough, big turn around. Teachers don't have control of their classrooms. One student was permitted to have access to the grade book and progress book by the teacher. The middle school gives alot of homework. I do not feel that the staff are genuinely interested in my child who has learning disabilities. They are ill equipped to help my child, and little progress has been made with academic progress. Overall not happy with school, it is the lesser of two evils.

My son, who is AD/HD and bi-polar started attending this school 4 years ago (He is now a senior). The teaching and support staff is SUPERLATIVE.They have excellent teachers at the High-school level. We came from another charter school system where the students were loud, obnoxious and ill-mannered, and you could hear the teachers yelling to establish order.The difference is amazing! These teachers go above and beyond to work with you for your child. They are always available to help my child, and keep regular contact with the parents. My son has blossomed into a straight-A student, taking honors classes. It has an challenging academic programs, preparing them for the future, as well as extra curricular programs. He enjoys going to school! The atmosphere is bright, comfortable and welcoming.The school is very clean. I love the smaller class size. The students have a easy-to-follow dress code, saving me money. The staff is welcoming, very friendly, extremely helpful and they really care about your child. The students are bright and articulate, and instilled with character and courtesy, and well-prepared for further education. I'm sorry I didn't find them sooner!

I went here 1st - 8th grade, and it's possibly one of the worst schools ever. It's a complete joke! Switching to public school for high school was the best decision I ever made. The teachers and administration don't know what they're talking about, and there's no extracurricular...
