It is a great school for vocational programs and class options. The athletics department is extensive. The downside is the student body number so it is easy to get lost in the crowd unless you stand out. Your ability to participate in sports is hard unless you are naturally talented because of the number of students that try-out.

I enjoy that there are a lot of opportunities available for different career paths. Spaulding is very accommodating. Spaulding also sets us up for our future through college and job fairs. I believe Spaulding is doing a great job now.

WE have been very pleased with Spaulding! The academics are appropriate for my honors level students. The extracurricular opportunities are plentiful and varied. My two have loved the music department - marching band, chorus, and drama!
