Transferring from one charter school to another was difficult. The schools were very different. At Lift for Life Academy, I felt welcomed. I was given all the help and extra help needed to prepare me for college. The teachers are well educated and expect the best out of their students. While I attended this awesome high school, I developed into a more mature person.

I started Lift for Life Academy when I was in the 6th grade. I didn't know what to expect when I first walked in. I had only ever been to one other school and none of them were going to the same school as me. I was kind of nervous but soon got used to it. All the teachers were so nice and I looked around the room to see other students who looked just as nervous as it looked and felt. I felt a sense of family while I was there. Lift for Life Academy made me feel comfortable and a lot more confident than I did before I came here. I really feel at home when I come to school it's like we are all a big huge family.
