We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

what I loved is the sponsorship they have among engenuity and the school since I got to choose after Coronavirus if I had any desire to remain on the online or be in person. however, the most recent three years ive been on the web, its a simple cycle to go. the main times I needed to goin person is twice a month to step through exams and any desk work I really want to get from my educator. the best part of it all the instructor that runs the interaction is consistently on top of all that, understanding and will assist you with any inquiries you have a long the way.

Very nice campus. Athletics are hard because in the hard Santa Barbara D1 league. Quiet and not a lot of action happening. Electives could use some work. Overall, it has a nice feel to it where teachers care and it is a small town. Variety of AP classes to choose from which is good.

I have had two children attend this...

The staff excel, the principal is active and continually seeks ways to improve the campus and curriculum, the courses are challenging, the welfare of students is a top priority. I love...
