Toxic environment. Teachers put too much emphasis on school work, over 5 hours a night for a 6th grader. Music program not as good as other places. They focus too much on school work creating an imbalance. I was unhappy and did not receive a well rounded education especially in terms of physical education. Library is small compared to other schools and the music program isn't as good as other schools either, except for the string instruments.

Teachers in the APAAS Program are really funny and cool. Also, overall, every teacher is very efficient in using the 6 hours to teach many things. Here, you play hard and work hard - Ivenator
