Vanguard is a great school for anyone looking for good education, good friends and good teachers. I would highly recommend it to anyone. My friend group has expanded and I've had alot of opportunities to play sports.

I love how our classes sizes are small because we can have a one-on-one relationship with our teachers. The teachers and sta...
