It was middle school. It was okay. The teachers and administration are very good at paying attention to the individual needs and qualities of each student. I do think some things could be improved: the bathrooms, the lunch (though I hear that the food is much better than when I was there), the stage (its teensy)... The theater program is run by high-school students - the administration and teachers seem to value good community involvement.
