Wonderful academics and a nurturing environment that pushes you to be your best self. It is a tight-knit community with a strong school spirit. Sometimes it may feel limited in terms of extracurriculars, but you can certainly make the most with what it has to offer, and you can propose your own clubs as well.

This school takes children and baselessly put them into special education, that's how it gets its high ratings.

Too much homework. Too much stress from public speaking. Curriculum is boring. This school is way underfunded and doesn’t really feel like a community. Uniform sucks. So many better options than this. You have a higher chance of getting into a good college if you get good grades at an average school...
