Great teachers and facility is decent. There is bias and when students bring up issues with other students, this bias is made very clear (often no actions are taken against some students even if many other students have frequently had issues with them).

All students can find a sport or activity to get involved in that they will enjoy and be able to make friends. Teachers are very helpful and supportive and care about students.

The school is well-kept and very cleaned. It is very caught up with technology and wants students to be using the most up to date programs as if in a professional environment. There are many ways for students to receive tutors, through teachers, students, and teachers may even recommend a tutor that will meet with a student after school when they are available.
