I believe that Ipswich Has the potential to be one of the most advanced Public schools in the northshore of Massachusetts. Now though, in the climate of Ipswich I do not believe the school can be considered entirely safe.

Caring staff, good facilities. Systems need to be revamped, athletic management needs complete overhaul, many archaic policies.

It's a small school, so everyone knows each other. The teachers are nice and it is a very safe school with no bullying
