I used to go to ADS and I loved it there. The teachers were really nice. I loved that there was a no bullying policy!

Very dissatisfied. The ownership at this school gives their own kids preferable treatment while treating others like they're beneath them.

This school is a joke. Administration is laughable at best. They treat teachers like garbage, they are rude to students. The owner’s bipolar, convicted felon wife has full access to walk around yelling and cussing at kids, making threats and being generally hateful. It is such a negative environment. Avoid this school at all costs

At first I thought this school was asking too much of my child for being in kinder I wrote to the teacher and principal and all they ask of me is I be patient and give my child two to three weeks to adjust. My child is now in 3rd grade and my 4 year old will be starting in Kinder in August. This school has exceeded my expectations. They teach not only what is required by the state by they go above and beyond teaching practical life, etiquette, music and so much more. My daughter loves this school as well as I. The principal is awesome she is on social media, email, etc. The only thing i do dislike is the dropoff. Hopefully in the future they can expand the parking lot. Beside that this school is for parents who are involved in their children's education. You have to help your child with homework and you have to be involved in their studying. IF you not willing to give your time and dedication this school is not for your child.

This is a horrible school if your student doesn't do well on benchmark testing. Benchmark tests are 90% of their grade. The other 10% is a homework grade.

My kids have been attending ADS since the Star Valley location opened. I am very happy that I made the move here. Appreciate the smaller class sizes, and smaller school. They are learning at a higher academic level. Staff is great and growing extra-curricular activities is a huge plus!

My children went to the star valley location and the first year was awesome. Then the second year was nothing but problems. The principal Ms.Stark targeted my son refused to listen to anything he had to say ect. He had an iep, as well as other things that the office and teachers were always informed on how things were going with my son. The after school program is a joke . It is nice and cheap but you get what you pay for. They do not allow parents in the back to pick up students and the only have to adults in the room with about 60 enrolled afterschool students. The ratio she be 1 adult to ever 10 kids. Run the other way expecially if you have a child that has adhd, iep,mood disorders, anxiety,ect as they could careless, very heartless. The teachers my children had were amazing but unfortunately you don't just deal with teachers. Hope this helps when deciding on where you enroll your child.

The administration at this school has no common sense and does not have the best interest of the children in mind. Teachers flee in masses once they realize the incompetence. Some teachers have no qualifications. They inflate their rankings. The school is horrible about communications and is secretive about school procedures and decisions. They discourage parent involvement. I would never ever recommend this school to anyone.
