I started at Upper Cape Regional Technical High School as a sophomore and it was one of my best decisions ever. My focus has been Vet Tech and I've learned so much about animals and believe it will help me a lot.

Being at Upper Cape Tech has been a good experience. I loved the strict structure and how well they prevented drug and cell phone use. Upper Cape gave me a good education but also allowed me to prepare myself for what I want to study in college, which is vet science. Every other week I go to work and I'm allowed to get paid which gave me a good start to my career. I will forever thank UCT for this opportunity.

Upper Cape Tech was a good choice for me. I've met good friends in my shop and have enjoyed my time here. I have no real complaints about the school. I also like the opportunity to go on Co-op. Overall, it's a pretty solid highschool.

I currently attend this school and honestly have no idea why it's received a 5 out of 10. That's seriously disappointing I'd give it about a 9. The only thing making it not a 10 is the lack of good math teachers. Everything other than that is spot on how it should be. I don't understand the 5.
