[quote=Anonymous]As many have mentioned it is a lottery school. In my experience, there has been a bit more of an emphasis on academics. We have one child in a neighborhood school and one at ATS. Different kids, different needs and it's a pain because the school start times are different, location is different but so are our kids. Your child will get a good education at ATS but just know it is work. There's more of a "traditional" learning experience - weekly/daily reports on your child and progress checks, lots of time spent on core subjects like math and reading. Staff and teachers are great (but I think that is at most schools). You are going to get such a wide range of opinions on here. My advice if you are interested is calling and setting up a virtual or in person call with someone to get more information. Families either love or hate the school so it's hard to get a true picture of what it's like on this type of forum. Best of luck![/quote]
