Niche Reviews
6/10/2025
Academically this school is great. There are loads of AP classes to take as well as honors courses and the IB program. Most teachers are great and good at what they do (with the exception of a few bad ones). But the administrators could almost care less. The counselors do next to nothing, they will leave emails unanswered for weeks and are rude when they do reply.

I've noticed that this school is very good in academics. I easily fit in and understand the courses taken. Something I wish they would change is probably to add more stringed instrument classes. They only have band and it sucks for someone like me who plays violin to not be able to be involved in that.

The school is only good when there's not a huge fight consisting of 40 kids. The faculty is nice to you when they want to be and the only teachers that push you are the higher level ones (AP & IB).

I am happy with this school. My child is interested in their courses and has had great teachers so far!
9/8/2019
It’s one of the better ones in Lancaster. But that isn’t saying much. We don’t have a lot of options here for quality education where our kids are safe and bullying is stopped. This school does its best and is far better than a few of the others in the area. Still I moved rather than letting my kids...
