We had a very poor experience with this school. Our son was the victim of several racial verbal attacks. The administration made no attempts to correct the problem. I was very disappointed with the overall lack of compassion for my son.

We are disappointed with the lack of administrative accountability - particularly regarding bullying. As a school that claims it has Christian values, I find this totally unacceptable. To allow this behavior to continue repeatedly is grotesque and shameful. Do better.

this school is absolutely fantastic. it is true that there aren't very many clubs but all it takes to create a new one is talking to a teacher connected to the subject, or an administrator. it is even easier to create a sports team. just this year they created a high school volleyball team. they have a girls golf team and i'm sure it would only take a little effort to make a boys team.
