My experience at Codman Academy Charter Public School was a very challenging and amazing experience, at Codman Academy during your high school year, they required each student to play 10 different sports and take 10 extra college classes. At first, I found it a very difficult task that they were asking, but as I reached my senior year I realized that those classes that I had been taking gave me experience and also extra credit for when I went to college. I made a lot of friends by playing sports and joining different types of activities. and it also teaches me how to manage my time so that when I go to college I'll have the experience of what it's like to manage time. Codman Academy Charter Public School takes the Academic and the kid's health very seriously."

I did not like Codman, it was great that we were connected to the Codman Health Center, but there was many injustices and shadiness within the school. The school would get money and never did things for the highschool, it went to the middle school and the thing was the school didn't use all the money on the lower school.

Codman Academy is a really great school when it comes to academic work but besides the academic work Codman in my opinion isn't really focused on the culture and school spirit.
