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.

My time at Leakey has been mostly good. I like that we can leave campus for lunch and that there's free parking. But there are a few things that could be better, like the food is not the best, and the Wi-Fi often doesn't work well or is really slow, which makes it hard to get things done. Also, some websites needed for class are blocked, so we can't finish our work. If I could change things, I'd want better food, faster Wi-Fi, and fewer websites being blocked so we can actually do our assignments.

We do have people that like to make fun of others, or fights. But overall, we get along pretty well.

The food is edible, but I would rather eat somewhere else. And the portion size is too small for me, I hardly get full.
