My overall experience at cy woods high school these past 4 years have been both amazing and a bit stressful.Over the years I have grown to become a better individual overall.Attending Cy Woods has not only allowed to better experience life but it has also gotten me to open more and as a result I have gained friends that I would have never made if I did not attend this school.Through all the good time there have been times of complete stress but because of that stress I was able to grow and experience how stressful college would be and how the only way to make it through is to keep working hard and pushing through no matter how tough or hard it may get.Being at Cy Woods has been a life changing experience that I will cherish for the rest off my life.

School great. Leadership not great-unprofessional with no concern for the mental and physical wellbeing of the students or the staff. Great principal retired and subpar replacement put in place.

I would not recommend anyone take their child to this school. They do not return calls, show an attitude of not caring, and actually say they are too busy to return calls. The student complains of a hard-nose attitude that permeates the entire school. Students appear disinterested in being there and...
