I've been attending CA since the 8th grade. I have enjoyed my time at Canton over the past 5 years. The atmosphere is very good, the teachers are always willing to help, and I love how we are one huge family. I have always loved that everyone knows everyone and I think that is super important and what makes a small school so great.

Canton Academy is a very good school. The atmosphere is awesome. The students are awesome. Sports could be a little bit better, but the facilities are amazing. Teachers are great and the resources we have are some of the best with new computers. Administration is some of the best. If you attend you are for sure to find friends and enjoy your time along with being prepared for college.

Canton Academy did not prepare me at all for college. Why is the ACT average only 21? We were never told it was important to prepare for the ACT. We only concentrated on sports but now that I'm at MSU, I see that I was not prepared. No one cares about the scores I made at the game. Here, i should know certain levels of math that I was not taught. I blame parents and principals.
