6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI've been a student here for two years and both years have been the equivalent of hell on earth with admins, none of them care and are willing to throw teachers AND students under the bus to seem as innocent as possible. Several admins have been unwelcoming, and even rude to me and my friends for simply dealing with mental health issues such as anxiety, had admins brag about suspending people, and an admin say that if I didn't have anything she'd find something. Not to mention the insane amount of blame that this school puts on students for things they could've helped with. Had an admin get mad at me that I didn't get an email they NEVER SENT OUT about OSTs!Student Review3y ago - Litchfield Community Learning Center

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt's underrated. It's actually the type of diverse environment we were looking for in Shaker Heights, etc., without the high taxes and the pretension. There's no need to go to private when there's this good neighborhood school right in Highland Square.Parent Review4y ago
