This School’s Reviews

4.0 Sophomore

12/16/2024

I enjoy the flexibility an online school grants me, so that's great. The teachers here are enjoyable and do their best to make learning engaging, and the assignments can be fun. My favorite class is my English Honors class since the students and teacher there create an atmosphere I look forward to joining. I do wish that they could partner with other schools for athletic programs since I enjoy running a lot, but there's no track team for me to join.

The HST's were wonderful, and very caring. The only issue is that it is policy to lock the zoom sessions after ten minutes. My problem was that I had very poor WiFi in my house. Anytime I got kicked off the zoom for my WiFi, I was unable to rejoin and just got marked absent for the day. I got multiple email warnings for truancy, and it was beyond my control. My family has tried everything to fix our internet, including professional companies, but it just won't work. My mother works from home and it's a problem for her too. I hope the school takes this into consideration for future students.

5.0 Junior
