Cyprus Classical Academy

If you are looking for a school for a gifted child who will be able to learn in a ability-based curriculum rather than age based - Cyprus Academy seems to be the only choice. My son is 6 yrs old, but already knows the school is much more able to teach him and make him smarter in smaller settings. He is more engaged with a accelerated curriculum. Overall highly recommended!The smaller class rooms enable children to interact with more engaged and available teachers and this leads to a marked uptick in confidence, social interactions with adults, vocabulary and sentence structure. Usually a highly academically focused school compromises on extracurriculars e.g. Plays/Dramas, Music (piano, guitar, vocals) or crafts but Cyprus has done really well in bringing the parents together and children showcasing these abilities on a regular basis. Overall I am very happy with the choice of school

During my son's kindergarten year at a traditional private school, he was struggling. His teachers thought he had behavior and attention issues and sent him out of the classroom regularly because they didn't know what to do with him. We decided to have him tested and realized his IQ was very high, and that his boredom in class was causing his attention and behavior struggles. His school wasn't willing to work with us in terms of offering more challenging work, so we started to look elsewhere. Finding Cyprus Classical Academy was the answer to our prayers. Within weeks of switching him to Cyprus, our son came alive. He was happy to go to school in the mornings. He came home excited and energized. No longer was he frustrated and angry in the evenings. We truly got our family back after making this switch and we could not be happier. One year later, he is continuing to flourish. The teachers and staff at Cyprus have been so accommodating and welcoming to him and he is thriving like I never expected. The subject matter he is learning is phenomenal, the small class sizes tailored to his ability are wonderful, and the community of committed staff and parents is great to see in action. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a new fit for their child. It may be just what you are looking for!

I don't know what we would have done without Cyprus. For us, it isn't so much that our child is working above grade level, it's about how the teachers at Cyprus cultivate a true love for learning and inquiry in these kids. A lot of brilliant kids have their spirits squashed in a typical school. At Cyprus, it's like the complete opposite happens. Their little sponge-brains get to soak up the most amazing stuff, and you can just see how thrilled it makes them.

Excellent school and staff. Both of my kids were bored with the typical elementary program. After switching to this school, they are having fun learning and are challenged to their full potential. This school has talented, well educated staff teaching the kids, and they keep them interested in learning. Very strong musician and artist development programs with well known composers, music teachers, and artists who are engaged. The children are developed to their full potential. Teachers also recognize talent in other areas and work with the students to develop those talents. The school feels like a small community and most parents volunteer or even teach at the school. Like another parent commented, I have a kindergarten son who barely knew his letters and was reading beyond the third grade level by the end of kindergarten. His math is also very strong thanks to the Singapore math curriculum. Lego physics and actual science experiments start in kindergarten. This tops the cake! Your child will thrive here!

This school is great, my daughter was way ahead of the game in public kindergarten and I FINALLY found something that will challenge her! She is at the end of her "Kindergarten" year and is reading at a 3rd grade level! Her math has also sky rocketed. They took a little girl who picks things up very quickly and allowed her to keep moving through material! I cannot say enough good things about this school.
