School Reviews

I currently go to Santa Rosa Academy and am in 9th grade. The lack of teachers is scary, there are always substitutes and, I haven''t had all my actual teachers for a singular day, not even the first day. When you have a sub you can barely learn anything because all there given is a lesson plan. The School requires you to wear uniforms which are just an overall drag. During lunch, some employees and teachers for the school are very rude and will try to get you detention for anything you do.

This schools centers on a students success. Many extracurricular activities and classes with mostly firm but friendly teachers help out in the path to success. WARNING this school has a very strict strike policy... three large offenses (from not wearing proper uniform to not completing work) will result in expulsion. Very strict school but has very high academics (to my opinion). Recommend for those students looking for a challenge and a good education.
