And as a former student I must say this high school is very unique, while I attended there I didn't see any cliques or anything of of the type.

This is an amazing school. I have only been teaching two years, and Ganesha is working hard to ensure that all the teachers are highly qualified. The teacher support I have received is unmatched, and teacher volunteer their time on weekends to help students. There is no place I would rather be.
