What People Are Saying About Imagine Schools
"Great fundraiser! Great turn out. It's nice to have my kids go to a school where the teachers and staff are willing to invest some of their own personal time, money, efforts into raising funds for the school. It was a great social time for all. The line was out the door and I was SO proud to be a parent of this school last night. Please thank all the staff!!:)"

"Picture this, going to a school without lectures. Hey, that would be heaven and I got it when I went to Imagine... One thing I’m superduper thankful for is your hands don’t stop moving. If it’s playing games or doing math drills it’s always fun. I just love how everything is new. When I’m in class I can let my mind go crazy with answers, questions, and possibilities. I’m so thankful for Imagine...I feel inspired of what you do because really you’re saving children’s lives and filling brains with knowledge, power, and responsibility again. Thank you."

"Yesterday I interviewed for a position at one of the Imagine schools. Yes, 30+ years ago I was a school teacher and thought I might rekindle the passion I hold for working with children. Regardless of what happens with that interview, I can honestly say that I have never been more impressed with the team of administrators, teachers and staff I met yesterday...The process, people and educational model that I saw in place yesterday may have kept me in the teaching field had it been available when I entered. Having been a very successful sales/marketing executive, I honestly believe that the Imagine schools can be sold to any parent in any community in the United States. I saw something working that I thought was broken too long ago to fix. My congratulations for your insight and effort to bring education back to the parent, teacher, student relationship."

"You and the organization you all created have done such good for so many children - and their families. It really should not be impossible to get a good education for your child without living in a million dollar home, moving to the suburbs or paying $17K a year for private school. Families that don't have the means, but do have the same dreams, desire and dedication to their child's education, should be able to send their child to a good school and get a really good education. You are providing that - and for my child, you are providing the means for balance, diversity, the chance to appreciate, understand and befriend children from many different races, religions and cultures - all while getting an excellent International Baccalaureate education!"

"We enrolled our son in Great Western Academy in Columbus, Ohio this year. All we can say is WOW! The school is exceeding our expectations. Your staff is beyond belief. He has learned more in the first month than he did all last year. All we ask is please continue to add grades and possibly a high school because I know that it is needed in our area. If Great Western is any indication of the rest of your schools then the kids in this great country are in great shape. Again, thank you."
