Silva gives many opportunities to any student looking into the medical field, with that being said the school does have a history of over stressing students and though this stress can be overwhelming at times, the students overcome this obstacles

It's a great school to get ready for college because it helps us manage our time with all the work and homework, and how advanced the classes are. It is stressful, but it is really fun. One thing that I don't like that much is the administration, they are all over the place and they don't focused on the problems the school and students have.

The school used to be prestigious, however, i feel like the students don't try their best anymore. The admission is easier than what it may seem, which means they accept a every kid that tried to get in. If every kid is accepted then it is not a selective strict school like it should be.

Coming from a very small private school, we took a leap of faith by enrolling our child in Silva. She is taking all pre-AP classes and feels that it is not hard to maintain a 95 average. The medical field approach is great and will give her a certain advantage for the future. We love that about half...

This is a great school. It is small and you truly get to know all of to know all of your teachers and classmates. It specializes in upper level classes (Pre-AP, AP, and Dual Credit) classes. I am really glad I am attending this school!
