  • This school is not worth letting your child attend! They are very unprofessional and careless!! They will not go the extra mile for the babies! The director is not a great leader! She needs to be switched with someone more knowledgeable, caring, professional, and understanding!

  • I absolutely love Dean Rusk Academy! All the staff that I have encountered are welcoming, loving, helpful and professional!! I love love love my daughters teachers! Ms. Tameka and Mr. Tye are awesome teachers! I see 1st hand that my daughter is learning at this school. Ms. Macon and Ms. Western are sooo nice and helpful. The 2 of them along with her teachers, really worked to help my daughter make a smooth transition from daycare to headstart and I am forever greatful for that 💛💛They are always working to have parent workshops and other activites to keep parents abreast and involved in all aspects of their child(ren) learning. Even the afterschool care staff are phenomenal! Always professional, caring and they treat u like family! All they ask is that u pick your child up by the designated end time of after-care which is 5:30. It would make sense to pick up your child by this time being that it's free + your kid(s) have already been in school alllll dayyy long. I have and will continue to support and recommend this academy!!
