4/3/2023
Chester academy is a small school where everybody knows everyone, and we've all grown up together all our lives. Chester is a small school where the classes are good enough to prepare you for the future but not excellent to be seen on a high end review. While the school may be small and with that there are not many clubs or sports, with what we have we love wholly and completely in order to make the best of the situation. Chester may not be a high end school but it is all in all good enough to feel homey at times, and no matter what there will always be someone to talk to if you need it.

Classes are good and at the right level of challenge. Schedules are, on average, balanced and most students have at least one study hall a day.

They did not push me into being someone I wasn't by forcing college down my throat and am grateful to have had some...

The teachers here can be very rude as there is also a lot of drama

The schools lacks many fundamental characteristics of proper management and education. The principal and others has favoritism, poor decisions and lack concentration on performing better in academics. Furthermore, the teaching of citizen skills are lacking.
