The school does a good job in preparing the students for college. However, the school could grow in its extracurricular activities, such as clubs and sports.

It is a Christian academy located right outside the heart of Denton. I have loved this school more than any others I have been at. The teachers and faculty truly care about the student/the individual. This is a place where a student will have an optimal place to grow in their walk with God and their knowledge of the world around them and how it works. When you put in the work here, you will recieve a bounty of reward mentally, emotionally, and spiritually (plus physically if you play sports:))
