My kids attended for seven years and left when we hit middle school. It's a different school from where we started. We entered for a wholesome environment and strong academics.

As a middle school student, i think the harley school is a great school. There are plenty of fin stuff to do and the staff is nice. The food can be bland but compared to public schools it is great. Learning is fun although sometimes I can be behind and teachers quit or get fired, being replaced by not great teachers. Overall the Harley school is a amazing school.
