School Reviews

I am a student who has pursued the IB Diploma option. Having the opportunity to take the IB curriculum for free has been a great experience, as the teachers are attentive, passionate, and understanding to the students'' needs. This education is truly one of a kind. There are many opportunities to get involved in the school's culture, especially as a minority student (two or more races), and the school pride is super exciting, definitely holds up to the expectations of any young student has of high school.
