Ambassador Stories
"It’s because of Queen City Academy that my boys are growing, learning, and becoming the best versions of themselves. For that, I will always be grateful."
"Not all students learn the same, and for my children, it has been crucial that they are in a small, nurturing environment where all students are truly seen and supported. BelovED has created an environment where they feel supported, challenged and encouraged to be their best selves, regardless of their starting point."
-
"It is important that elected leaders support quality education options like Great Oaks. That is why I remain an advocate for my school and other public charter schools in New Jersey, even after I’ve graduated."
