Even though when I left the school I was really desperate, now, looking back, I truly do love it. The enviornment is amazing, everything is so family-oriented, and friendly. There weren't many cliques, and students there were mostly fair in treatment to each other. The academics definately prepared me

However, I believe that Math A and higher science classes should've been offered when I was around, but I'm glad they offer it now. The school isn't too strict, but has a good level of discipline. The school has many extra-curriculars to get a student invovled. The only thing about the school I would've liked is an environment for middle schoolers to be able to make that transition into high school. Overall, it is delightful school. Read less

This is not the most excellent school for high school preperation. Of course it prepares you but it was a little boring. Homerooms arent that great unless youre an older kid who likes to be around younger kids. As an eigth grader, i wanted to be in a classroom with fellow eigth graders, but instead i

If the staff expects everyone to make friends with people out of our grade, yeah we will, it just isnt enjoyable to be in a classroom with people much younger than you, its okay but it gets annoying sometimes and it also causes some trouble. The extracurricular activities are.. whatever. The level of parent involvement.. a little too high for such a small amount of children, but we appreciate it. But the Academics are good except for science. Read less
