On top of all this, the academics are fantastic- there are some real progressive super stars on the staff!

My daughter's first year at this school, she hates it. Difficult to make friends and block scheduling is not a good learning environment that works for her. Predominantly affluent and filled with materialistic headcases. Will be moving her to a more diverse school like CBS.
