We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I love my school. The teachers are amazing and very understanding. If life gets hectic, as it does. The teachers understand that sometimes you just need a break, sometimes to relax. There are things I would change though. I wish I could change the attitudes of the students. I wish it didn't mean something if you played sports or not. I wish students bragged about loving school and going to school instead of dreading it.

The classes are small so it makes for easy, fun learning. It's easy to get extra help being in a small school. The amount of CEP classes we have are amazing.
