4.0 Junior

5/20/2023

Johnson college prep is a great school. Johnson helps with college readiness and preparing the students for the real world. Johnson offers good classes, and knows the worth of Johnson students. But one thing about Johnson College Prep is that Johnson is somewhat unorganized. But overall I like Johnson and I'm learning much.

They do not have enough support in the classroom with dealing with 25+ plus students for one teacher. Would not suggest sending a student to school there. Horrible environm...
