My overall experience was beyond great because I was able to prepare myself for high school. The fact that this school shows the student's creativity in diverse ways makes this school unique. I would choose this school again if I could do it all oer again because it never lacked school spirit and was during the years I got the chance to find out who I was.

The teachers are wonderful and really give extra time to their students. They answer questions and give children room to think. The staff is polite and the campus is well kept. They are also a school to watch. A wonderful school overall. Send your child.
