I loved it here located in the old Clinton house in downtown Ithaca lots of classes happened outdoors very small school

Great students! Administration is falling apart and effecting student morale. Teachers want to do what's best for their students but feel pressure from higher ups to negate "rebels"

The teachers were very personable and always willing to lend a hand. Real world application were applied in the class rooms. I would not have been near as ready for college or the real world if I hadn't attended.

I would rate this school 1 out of 5 mostly due to weak administration and poor academic performance. Ithaca has very high achieving, safe and well run schools. I can't understand why parents and students pick a school like this.
