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.

Some of my best parts about being a student at this school would be the help and college readiness the school is. I am often consulted about my grades and progress towards graduation in order to make sure I am in the right path. The help and advice given helps me a lot in my college path.

My experience at Math and Science College Preparatory was overall good. This school helped me apply for college and had a lot of resources for help when it came to tutoring and counseling.

I like how this school prepares those who want a career in STEM. They offer elective classes like Biomedical Science, Computer Science, and Engineering. This school is very small which means we don't have fields to play sports during our free time. Overall, this school has been good so far, but the administration needs to take care of certain situations in a better way. I still have two years left, and hope they prepare me for what I want in the future.
