There are many opportunities at Strath Haven, and always something to do around the school. Teachers are helpful and kind, and most are very generous with their time.

I attended any ivy league university after attending this school. I found the school did not adequately prepare me for the level of work that was expected at college. In the end I did okay, as did most of my peers who went to good universities. But that is mostly because of our privileged background...
