The teachers are always helpful and make sure I'm doing okay. The curriculum isn't too stressful and the workload is manageable.

I had a great experience from being there my whole 4 years. I've learned a lot from the teachers and students there. I played sports there and I've made history along with memories there.
5.0 Junior

In my opinion, I think this school is great. It is a prep school, so it will probably give you a lot of work, especially for AP classes, but I don't think teachers overdo it. I've enjoyed my time at Arbor Prep, and I love the teachers and the students. The field, size of the school, and uniform may bother some people, but I don't mind it. I would like an art club, and I think others may like clubs geared to other subjects too, like music or gaming.

The worst school in the area, no parent engagement unless your kid is in trouble. The adults are not at all emotionally intelligent and should not be engaging with children. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere!

Honestly this school is horrible and i don’t think anyone should attend this school they suspend kids off of rumors without facts nor evidence they only listen to one side of every story and go off that and they disrespect every person who isn’t a white individual.
