School Reviews:

  • Not Recommended September 01,2010 - This school is a joke! If you care anything about the quality of education your child will receive, Capitol should not be anywhere on your list of schools to consider. I speak from experience. I made the regrettable decision to send my son there this year as a freshmen. At only 3 weeks of school, I saw that is school is going nowhere fast. I will be transferring my child to one of the Magnet program this coming week. I cannot emphasize this enough...DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO CAPITOL! Unless you don't mind placing your child in a horrible environment.*-Posted by Parent *
