Seventeen years. That’s almost two decades of morning drop-offs, school events, friendships, lessons, growth, and memories that will stay with our family forever.All three of my children have been blessed to call this school home. Seeing where my older two are today is proof of the incredible foundation they received here.This school didn’t just educate my children,it shaped them. It taught them responsibility, kindness, confidence, and perseverance. The teachers truly care. The administration leads with heart. The staff goes above and beyond. Every child is known, supported, and encouraged to be their very best.For 17 years, this community has felt like family. It’s bittersweet knowing our final chapter here is approaching with my youngest in 8th grade. I will miss the familiar faces, the traditions, and the feeling of knowing my children were always in the best hands.We are beyond grateful for the impact this school has had on our lives. The lessons learned here will stay with my children forever and so will the love.

Teachers don't make an effort to communicate with parents. The grading system is a disaster. Sometimes homework and assignments are not graded. Some teachers don't grade assignments and exams until the end of the marking period, therefore most parents don't know what's going on until it's too late. The principal doesn't have much influence on the teachers.

Honestly, the school isn't awful, but they enforce punishments very unequally. For example, the dress code. We have no uniform, but we have a dress code. The assistant principals only enforce the dress code on girls, and even then results vary. My friend and I wore the exact same thing one day: a thick-strapped tank top with long pants. Tank tops are technically not in the dress code, but that is rarely enforced. My friend and I walked into the school and without warning one of the assistant principals started yelling at me and issued me a detention. I was standing next to somebody wearing the exact same thing as me, and he did not care. Four girls wearing significantly less walked by in the amount of time it took for the detention to be issued. I was in my last year of high school and it was the first detention I had been issued EVER.The teachers at this school are incredible, especially the AP ones, they teach concepts that are difficult in an intuitive way that makes them easy to understand. Unfortunately, the environment of the school is ruined by a handful of assistant principals who have nothing better to do than unequally enforce a dress code which is probably older than them. Instant detention for a shoulder peeking out is extreme.
