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.

I have been at Terry Parker since my ninth-grade year. It is a great school to catch up with old friends, or to even make new friends. They have wonderful academic programs such as IB and Dual Enrollment, and tons of other things to get you ready for college. The teachers actually care about the student's wellbeing and mental health.

Which is why it came out to a 2 star rating. I've been attending Parker for 2 years now, going on 3 (making me a Junior) and the quali...
