School Reviews

I have had a child at SST from grades 6th through 12th, and have been very happy with our school experience. Great academics, great emphasis on preparation for college, and a friendly devoted faculty. We''ve loved SST and believe it to be the best school in our area. They also do a great job with AP exam prep and SAT prep. They take kids on tours of college campuses and bring college admissions staff to campus to speak. Definitely a place where academics are placed first.
