Many of the staff are there for good reasons and are there to guide children for their future. Overall the teachers and community are fantastic. The campus is beautiful. There are some teachers and staff who are definitely their for the paycheck and that's it.

Overall academically I would say I received my best preparation for HS from my middle school pre-cambridge program, once in HS I wasn't really motivated in academics.

My main focused turned to sports and preparing for college football, unfortunately during my 4 years of HS our program went thru 3 different head coaches and our training an team suffered as a result.
