Ravenscroft is a school where staff and students truly connect. Students control their education, and we get a lot of opportunities to grow and create our own paths. Teachers are attentive to their students, and are always available for studnets for any needs. The campus is beautiful; the newly opened Olander Center for Student Life motivates us to come together and socialize or study.

Teachers are great but the administration, parents, and students are terrible. Teachers are terribly underpaid especially when parents pay 30,000 a year.

Ravenscroft is a great school for high education and the teachers are interactive and very helpful. I only gave three stars because there's a lot of sexual harassment, racist, and homophobic comment made by some of the students at the school. This was my experience there as a 7th grader.
