I it's a small school so the opportunities are limited, however, the academic standards are higher than most schools. I'd say you get the general feel of the American high school life while getting a great education, regardless of the little resources that are given.

I've had a pretty decent experience I'd say the kids here are cool and easy to get along with but the higher ups are stuck up and the teachers actually enjoy their job and take responsibility.

The academics are very good at this school. The student just needs the drive and motivation to find the academic help that they need. Teachers are extremely helpful and are willing to work with students.
