School Reviews
| 5 Really enjoy the school! Unfortunate cuts in spending, yes, but it's still a great option for Juniors and Seniors to delve into and learn about the major they may want to pursue in life. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Student |
| 1 Horrible school. Administrators are rude and uncaring. Teachers have stopped caring due to pay cuts. I can only hope they fire and completely switch the entirety of the administrators. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Former Student |
| 5 This school is great for students who know where they're going in life and have something they love, like art, theatre etc, but the student/teacher ratio is way off. There are 29 children in a class my child is in, and 28 in another. The teacher simply cannot get to know her student as well because there are so many kids. - Posted by Teacher - maman |
