Providence is a Christian school where God is first. Their academics are extremely good, and the teachers genuinely care about everyone. I am personally the captain of the robotics team, and I can confidently say that we have no lack of resources. I highly recommend this school to anyone who is considering it.

It's okay, the campus is very nice and many of the techers are nice as well. There are many classes to choose from with most of the teachers wanting to help you do your best in the class. There are many extracurricular activities to choose from as well as a few art and band classes.

Most teachers are very lovable and care about their students so much and want them to succeed. It is a smaller school, with my graduating class of around 110 people, which gives us more of a chance to connect on personal levels and to really grow in our faith with each other.

Racism is rampant. Everyone gets straight A’s all you have to do is email a teacher. Minimal AP courses available. Save your money and go to a magnet public school.
