My experience was a good one although others might not say the same. I saw many opportunities at islands high school and I took advantage of them.

I've been at islands high school since freshman year and my main critique is the uncleanliness of the school. The school has a roach infestation and the bathrooms are always dirty or broken. The best parts of the school is the dual enrollment program. They make it very easy to dual enroll with colleges and get college credits.

High School for me was challenging but exciting at the same time. I had very encouraging, supportive teachers who loved to teach and embraced all learners. I never felt excluded or left out of learning or social environments. Administrators were concerned with the education, arts and athletics.

My daughter attended STEM Academy for middle school. We were worried we would not find a high school that would challenge her. She chose Islands and is in the Scientific Research Program. They moved her to Sophomore Honors classes her Freshman year. She is very happy and so are we. Great program.
