In my years at Helix, I have had support and have never felt alone. There is always someone to help, whether it is at tutorial or aspire. In terms of changing, I think the schedule could be a bit better. It could make lunch after third period.

I've generally enjoyed being a student at Helix. The majority of the staff and students are very kind, welcoming people. Some of the administration is at times unhelpful and passive aggressive, but generally issues and problems can be solved quickly and easily which is nice.

This school is very welcoming as a diverse student, from the students to the staff everyone is very kind and welcoming. The school gives you many opportunities to strive for whatever it is that you would like to pursue, and give you lots of support to get where ever it is that you would want to go.
