I have 4 children at this school and we have been attending for the past five years. I love this school. It is amazing in every way. The staff has gone above and beyond to help support me as a parent and my children as students. I would highly recommend them.

Highly recommend!! Honest admin and great teachers. Safe. Professional. Clean. I have had my kids at APA for 7 years. Love it. 10 out of 10.

My child attends this school, and we have had a very bad experience thus far. We are considering other options. APA (Draper 2) tries to force the children to all be the same and to learn at the same rate. There is no room for individualism or advanced skills. The staff have no patience for children who don't do exactly as they say. We feel that enrolling our daughter here was a mistake. It is not a good learning environment and I would not recommend it.
