the school was great when it first started but funding was hard for them to get and the school went down hill from there. Also with it being a newer school there were some opportunities missed that a longer school would have.

I liked the easy accessability to teachers, and how simple it was to get help on assignments. If you needed help, within the hour, you'd get an email back. Tutoring hours are super flexible, and the teachers are very kind and willing to help. The students at the school are also very kind and all have bright personalities, if you wanted to register your child into Quest, they would fit in just fine.
