Student and Parent Voices

Words from our community

Families, students and alumni describe what it feels like to belong to Plato Academy.

Parent

Plato Academy gave our daughter something rare: the confidence to ask why. She comes home eager to read, to debate and to understand — and she is kind to everyone she meets.

Maria Evangelou

Parent of a Grade 6 student

Student

Our teachers treat us as thinkers, not test-takers. The Socratic seminars changed how I listen, how I argue and how I change my mind.

Alex Pappas

Grade 11 student

Alumni

The Academy taught me how to learn, which turned out to matter more than anything I memorised. I still use those habits every day at university.

Irene Kostas

Class of 2021 · Philosophy and Economics
