Our School Parent Testimonials
“…If your child has a special interest in science, this is definitely the school of choice. The
Science Olympiad Team – lead by intelligent, dedicated Teachers – has competed throughout
Buffalo as well as traveled to New York and New Jersey. The team has won numerous
medals, had the privilege of being taught by Professors from Princeton and Yale, was featured
on channels 2 and 4 morning shows and received a Proclamation from the Legislature in which
the parents were able to attend. I like BASCS. Their efforts make me as a parent want to
cooperate and become more involved with the school.”

“This is an excellent school. Their science program is wonderful. My daughter is in the
Science Olympiad team and just last week she was [on] Channel 4 News showing off her
scientific skills. I am a proud parent and I am very glad my daughter is attending Buffalo
Academy of Science Charter School. They encourage my child to go to a good college even
though she is a 9th grader.”

“I cannot say enough about the Administration and Staff at BASCS: It starts with the greeting
of students in the morning; assignments of 9th period for students whose grades are not
satisfactory; Saturday school for students that want extra help; and I cannot forget about
Staff home visits for those families that are willing. This school knows the importance of
school-family connection and is definitely putting forth the effort to educate my children.”

“I love this school! The accessibility to student data via the iPhone app is great! I can know at
any time how my child’s grades are and what work has missed.”

“I am happy with my experiences [at BASCS]… I recognize that this school takes more of a
personal interest in how well my child is doing academically.”

=================================================================================
“I love BASCS because you always know what’s going on in the school and when it takes
place… That communication is crucial. Anytime that phone rings and it’s the school calling,
it’s perfect… I can be prepared and know how my child is doing.”
~Stephanie Rogers, Parent of 9th Grader
=================================================================================
“BASCS offers my son the safe, secure alternative we were looking for. We feel the
challenging academic environment at BASCS will help propel him to future success.”
~Michael E. Johnson, Parent of 8th Grader
=================================================================================
“I chose to send my child to BASCS for the excellent programs the school offers. I feel BASCS
is a better school for my child because of the smaller classroom size and teacher availability
for my child. I am very pleased. I love the dress code and no-nonsense, no bullying policy.
There is excellent student-teacher-parent communication. My overall view is that it’s a much
better and safer environment for my child and his attitude has changed to a more positive
one towards school since he’s been at BASCS.”
~Mrs. Emanuel, Parent of 7th Grader
=================================================================================
“My daughter tells me that she reads poetry after the announcements [during school]… I love
that ideas are not heard [by staff] and then squashed.”
~Tiffany Winfrey, Parent of 9th Grader
=================================================================================
“My 18-year old is new to the school, but he looks forward to going to school every day and I
attribute that to the education that he is receiving at BASCS.”

“[My daughter] has absolutely thrived in this environment. Her grades have improved overall
from her last school and I feel she’s getting a more rounded experience at BASCS… She has
really opened up. I think BASCS is doing a wonderful job for my child both socially and
academically… Keep up the good work!”
