School Reviews
5 5/26/2021
I am a former Augusta ranch student and i would rate it 5/5 stars. The staff there was amazing and nobody was racist towards people of different races, religions, etc. I think one of my favorite parts of going to Augusta was the people in it. In most schools you feel like you are there to learn, only learn, and then go home, but at Augusta, you feel like you are part of something. The teachers all interact with you and allow you to have fun sometimes so it isn't just straight work. I and my friends were all put into different classes so we didn't think we would see each other much but that wasn't true at all because the teachers were all friends. The teachers would plan extra recess once a week for us to go outside together. The school also planned loads of dances so that everyone could have fun together outside of school. They also planned times where your family could come in and have lunch with you if they wanted to. That is the reason that I think Augusta Ranch elementary is the best school I have ever been to, and if you are considering sending your children there, you should do it.
