GBBased on recent dealings with NHA … Based on recent dealings with NHA representatives, and Grand River Academy School Board, it is evident that their mission is not being supported and adhered to; students with special unique needs and behavioral struggles are being put out of their schools expelled and suspended without proper intervention strategies, adequate services and supports and disenfranchised educationally. The state and federal government mandates our students to receive an appropriate and free public education to include individualized instruction to support the unique needs of our students, for all students to be allowed to reach their full and maximum potential. Students are to benefit from the education experience: socially, academically, mentally etc.. Not be excluded from this. Students need to learn not just at home, but through collaborative efforts from all to include schools and community organitional supports in order for them to be successful in our today's society. This information is not new, but old. There must be equal access to an education not disenfranchisement from receiving an equitable education and discrimination. NHA has disregarded the rights of students who are citizens of the United States. They accept the State and Federal funding that is allocated for each and every student. NHA parents and stakeholder, this is your money and if it's your money; you are the employer. Therefore there is no excuse that our students at NHA are being prohibited from receiving a suitable and equitable education. They solicit us through false promises for the head count dollars and do nothing to fulfill their promise, the expectations of State and disregard federal requirements. Per their responses to many of their stakeholders, they suggest we call them to talk about the concern,well this too is a waste of time. We have reached out to many such as Board of the school, the Board of NHA, and their Chartering authorizer VP(no response); nothing but pure disregard. A class action US Department of education complaint with the Inspector Generals office and office of Civil rights needs to be done if anyone is interested please contact me at 313-452-2329.

GBChallenge advanced students? Good school but not confident they will customize a learning plan for students who are advanced in some subjects.

GBThe gym teacher put his hands on my… The gym teacher put his hands on my daughter in rolesville nc. The principal refused to meet with my family about it. She brushed it under like it was nothing. Also my daughter was supposed to be receiving math interventions. She never got them instead she was placed in a remediation group which she did not need. Both the dean and the principal refused to meet with us. I am disgusted with the school and do not trust them with my child or anyone else's.

GBUnacceptable experience no response or accountability … I called National Heritage Academies in March because of issues with Emerson Academy in Dayton. I was told they would look into it and get back. No one ever returned my calls or my emails. Teachers are calling me because my grandchild is talking, not sitting down or listening. I thought teachers are the adults. I had a teacher call me today and when I told her my granddaughter stated three girls were bothering her. The teacher told me she was busy in class. Excuse me, I am at work, she interrupted me. Emerson Academy and National Heritage Academies are terrible. I think my next call will be to the State Board of Education
