School Reviews
| 2 i will go there for my ninth grade year ,which is in two years - Posted by Student/Alumni - willi |
| 5 I would recommend this school because it is secondary. I really like the fact that it has many activities for the student to learn. I believe the extracurricular activities will be helpful to the students, and will let them do anything they would like in life. - Posted by Student/Alumni - breez |
