This School’s Reviews

3.0 Sophomore

9/2/2023

Its a very small school so everyone knows eachother and you do get to know the teachers pretty quickly. The work is fairly easy and the homework is as well. The overall management is unorganized and teachers are not treated well by the head administrators.

3.0 Sophomore

4/6/2023

What I like about the school is that most of the people here know each other and we help each other no matter what grades we are in. Everyone is really nice, kind, and helpful, and the teachers do a really good job of helping out with school work or any other problems.

4.0 Senior
