Canton Academy is a wonderful school. It's academic program is outstanding. They give you multiple chances of bettering your grade. The athletic's program is good also. The only changes that need to occur is where the school is it's money. Sometimes the school need to spend the money on what's important like the roof/leaks. Instead they spend it on sports and other things. Overall the experience of being a student at Canton Academy is very good.

The facilities are awful. The cafeteria is a joke. The ceiling is falling in. The desks are so old. We go to class in the same building our whole life. There is no parking places assigned. The gym is ancient.

Canton Academy has its standard pros and cons like every highschool. With small class sizes and dedicated teachers it can be very easy for one to get the information needed to recieve a standard education. But it has very few AP and Advanced courses available for the ambitious student. Personally I think the classes can move slower than they need to but overall a good deal for a family orientated individual.
