Well I just came this year and I'm very picky about my schools. I really like things to do, such as clubs that I barely see.

The best part of attending this high school was the small knit community that was created that included everyone from 9th-12th grade. This created trust and familiarity within everyone at the school. Also the yearly trips for each grade were a great way to experience life outside of New York. When I was at the school the uniform system was very restricting and didn't allow students to express themselves in their fullest form.
