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.

It is fantastic, though. It was a rough first year, but I resolved my internal conflicts once that year passed. I excelled during my sophomore to junior year and have been doing quite well in my senior year. It has a fantastic shop program and excellent college readiness classes. It's a school to remember with its physical education and projects. And its co-op programs and club activities are perfect. Try out the school if you care about your future, it's the best in Middlesex.

My experience with this school is good. The best parts are the people there, most of the students and Staff are friendly here. Classes are nice, the teachers make it easy to learn and are always there to help when I need it. The worst experience I've had was with the cafeteria, they serve the same food everyday and it just doesn't taste good some days. One thing I would like to see change is the food in the cafeteria.

I will be the first to admit that I "thought" I knew what I wanted to do past High School but, Being a Gryphon made me see that there were far more possib...
