Being a student at this school is great, The teachers and staff are all incredibly respectful and kind. Although there are some lacking factors, such as a proper sports team or parent-involvement. I believe this school is a great choice when considering what the next step in your educational career should be.

Great Experience. Small high school allows for more opportunities to learn because of lower student teacher ratios. Students are motivated to learn so there are less distractions.
