The faculty at the school is the worst part they are snobby and entitled, but the academics are very good.

Excellent, Gospel centered education that focuses on relationships over products. This school cares about people, and preaching the Gospel of Jesus.
12/3/2024
The curriculum for each student is well planned. My only dislike of this school is its excessive reliance on social media (personal opinion).
