Andrada has been a great school for me and my high school life. I have made lots of friends and connected with so many people. The teachers are so supportive and love to help you out. I've learned a lot from this school and I'm glad I chose this high school as my own.

Andrada Polytechnic High School is a great school for college and career readiness. Its many programs provide students with career/college-level certificates and practice right out of high school. Since the school was focused on post-high school readiness, the sports are not great, but they are getting better. They provide students with community and enjoyment after school hours.

Best school in town because of the Pathways. Students will get certificates of the pathways they chose even before finishing High School.
