The best part is how understanding the teachers can be at a small school. On the other hand a bad experience is some of the students, and restroom facilities.

Summit Christian Academy is a small school, so every students know each other and help each other. If someone are in a bad situation or emotion, students share pain and help them. Anyone can have a great school life in SCA.
