This School’s Reviews

2.0 Sophomore

3/18/2022

The kids there are troubled. The high school students still have a middle school kid mind set. Half of them don't be taking school serious

3.0 Junior

6/4/2020

My experience at this school was very inclusive. I feel like there's more community and spirit building than there is academic success and achievement, however it's not a bad school. I'm planning to take 5 AP classes before I graduate, but I wish they had more AP classes to take.

3.0 Senior

1/27/2020

Techboston Academy is a good school but I do feel like some of the teachers don't care for some of these students. what I would love to see the teachers caring more for the students wanting them do do better. I would also love to see more school gatherings so everyone can connect more .
