The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

The school has its goods and bad parts of it. I went to prep during my sophomore year of highschool. And the academics are good but teachers could get some improvement. Along with the students being better and least fake to each other. Overall it's okay I did go to a public school that felt unsafe for me. L and the changes aren't too bad. just be yourself don't let anyone tell you otherwise. " don't be fake"

Good experience overall going to Prep, but the overall culture of the school could use some work. Many well off families, and some sheltering is unnecessary.

I went to St.Croix Prep from 11th-12th grade. They are a classical school that is very rigorous in their curriculum. They are rich in school culture as class sizes are very mall, allowing for great relationships to students and teachers to foster. It is a predominantly white school, though, so it isn't very diverse.
This school has seriously declined in the past 4-5 years. This could be due to the change in administration in recent years as I feel that the faculty doesn’t care for students and would rather keep their titles and power statuses instead of bettering the school. There used to be a lot of great teac...

Our two daughters are enjoying their experience in the high school at SCPA. Their classes are rigorous and well taught and the curriculum is rich in the classical tradition--just what we wanted. Coming from a classical private school that was $8,000 per year per student, we were very pleasantly surp...
