Provided by YP.comThis is our sixth year at Thales Academy in Apex and we are extremely happy with the results. I have 2 different children with different strengths and the individual attention we've received has been fantastic. My children have responded very well to the structure and we have found that both our kids are accomplishing more academically than they did prior to enrolling here. They have made some good friends also. People get passionate about education in Wake County, we can speak for ourselves having experienced elementary, middle, and now high school there that it has exceeded our expectations and reaped excellent results for us.

Provided by YP.comWe all know that Thales Academy is funded by a rightwing activist, but to what extent does that affect the curriculum? Feel free to ask administration how the curriculum is designed - especially the economics curriculum. You may be surprised to learn that Luddy uses right-wing interest group Civitas to design curriculum. I would research Civitas and see if you agree with their political positions. If so, Thales Academy may be a great choice.
Additionally, the administration also consistently chooses a curriculum that does not include diverse voices. Any mention of climate change or evolution among staff is forbidden.
Also, next time you talk to a teacher at Thales, ask how many preparations they teach. True to it's free-market philosophy, Thales is all about the maximum about of work for the cheapest possible price.
In summary, Thales Academy ought to be up front with parents and prospective teachers about the curriculum and agenda.
