Excellent school. The administration is very supportive of the students academically and mentally. During Covid years, they were fantastic in making sure the students didn't fall behind. My daughter had reservations at first but after graduation would not have picked a different school. Highly recommend.

The school has an encouraging learning environment and is academically rigorous. I have had an amazing experience with r most teachers making learning fun again for many high school students. Although the academics and course load can be a lot depending on the classes you choose, your teachers will not let you fail unless you do not put in the work.
