My overall experience was a good experience, it is very easy to make connections with the staff and students at this school. Teachers definitely do want the best for their students and every time I needed help by a teacher I always got it and staff members are very supportive.

Best experience I've had in a school in America, so many opportunities. Great teachers, environment Is amazing, and the new principal has changed the school so much to a better place it ever was.

What I like about my school is that I just transferred this year and they were just so welcoming. The staff was so helpful in getting me to engage with other students. I loved the way that the other students also involved me in their activities like the classwork. I really like being a student there. It is so much fun to be around them. The have become a family to me and I enjoy being around them. I have made great friends along the way.
