GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have been a CA parent for 11 years. My oldest is in high school and had a great transition from CA to a private high school where she is now one of the top students in her class. She received a very rigorous education with just the right amount of support and guidance from her teachers.

Proud of my child, and Proud of my choice! Cologne Academy offered more promise as my son was entering Kindergarten five years ago and my neighborhood public school seemed to lack discipline, one-on-one teacher-to-child interaction, and non-iPad-based teaching. He, and his younger sister, have grown and learned so much by being at this wonderful school, I am so happy to be a part of the Cologne Academy community!!

We've been a part of Cologne Academy for the past 9 years. I am so thankful that this school is an option for us. The academics and character building exceeds anything else in the area. There is a core virtue each month (generosity, diligence, integrity) that students learn about and put into action. Middle school students have opportunities in band, choir, musicals/drama, many sports options, knowledge bowl and more.

They didn’t take any action and when I did finally hear back after the third incident. It had been over 16 hours. And that was after...

We have one child enrolled at Cologne Academy and have nothing but positive things to say about our experience. The staff is incredible and the quality of education is top notch.

We have 2 children currently enrolled and looking forward to our 3rd child enrolling when it's time for kindergarten! The administration is terrific at accommodating the needs of different backgrounds and families. They even have an online program that is part of their school of character for those...
