We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall, my time at the Early College has been good. I have been able to experience many different things because of this school. The only bad part was that in ninth grade, the year got cut short by COVID. It made my classmates and I miss out on multiple opportunities but overall I have enjoyed it.

I like the school, and the teachers are very involved and care about students. The only thing I'm not the biggest fan of is how slow the pace was for high school classes in the first three years.
