From the time I've spent at Templeton Academy, I've experienced academic growth, personal growth, and a very supportive community. The school's small environment is good for anyone who feels or has felt overwhelmed in a larger educational setting, and the location encourages independence and using the surrounding city as an extension of the campuses. Creativity is something that is encouraged and allowed to flourish, as well as a sense of discipline when it's needed. Would recommend it for your kids.

Templeton has been a great experience for my child. The small class sizes mean that teachers know every student and make sure that each has the tools to be successful. Every teacher has office hours when students can get individual assistance when needed. Overall, I have found the school environment to be warm and supportive.

My daughter is an eighth-grader at Templeton DC. Now she loves going to school each morning. The project-based curriculum is an engaging way to learn, with students going deep on particular topics and bringing in a variety of academic subjects and skills. Field trips happen once or twice a week and are directly integrated into the projects. Each term is capped off with an evening of student presentations about their projects, allowing each student to shine. The atmosphere is warm and supportive, both by the teachers and by the other students. Clubs are built into the day, with middle school students and high school students attending the same clubs, and the high school students being engaged with and mentors to the middle-schoolers. There is an intentional focus, built into the weekly schedule and evaluation process, on learning about self-advocacy and self-reflection, skills that everyone (especially teenagers) need. Also, the downtown location can`t be beat, giving easy access to all the city offers and independence to the students. We look forward to sticking with Templeton for high school.

I love everything about Templeton Academy! They are very supportive of my son's challenges and provide it when needed. The teachers are team players with the parents as well. The project-based curriculum is awesome! It gives the students the chance to learn to work as a team and also use critical thinking skills. The class schedule is unique as well where the student will take 2 courses per semester for 10 weeks and still get all their required credits. Even though school is virtual right now, my son has met some friends. Oh, and the class sizes are nice and small. The teachers are available for students when needed. Another thing I love about Templeton is how they praise the accomplishments of their students. My son is featured on their social media pages for winning 2 scholarships for being a philanthropist. I highly recommended Templeton Academy for a middle and high school choice. You won't be disappointed!

My daughter joined Templeton when during the pandemic, when she stopped learning in the public school. She is one of those really smart kids that needed more interaction to learn, and she wasn't getting it in public schools doing distance learning. At Templeton, she gets a lot of individual attention. For example, we have discovered that she has excellent leadership skills and her teachers encourage that. Classes are more project-based and she is able to engage. There is a lot of debate, so she gets to exercise her critical thinking skills. Classes are engaging and use a variety of different activities to engage students. She loves her field trips that are made safe even during the pandemic. Staff is highly responsive and knows and understands her. She loves her school. I highly recommend Templeton.
