  1. Please consider that some of these posts have not been in the school that long, and are mostly focused on younger years. We have 3 kids in the school for the past 6 years including 2 high schoolers and I can sum it up like this: Education good, Administration HORRIBLE. Support is awful and they do not like or want any feedback on the teachers, courses, and forget about dropping or switching. They are hostage takers and unless you’ve ever experienced a child in tears who has gotten in the wrong class and can’t get out or you are threatened with blacklisting and having them kicked out of all their classes…sorry but you really need to understand this school does not function like a normal school in working with the parents. Some of the teachers are awesome! Some of them are simply awful. It makes all the difference. Please check out the teachers and ask around before signing up for a certain section. Transcripts - ISSUES, I mean bad issues. Content is rigorous, and amazing. Consider that most of the English courses are 2 or three levels higher than what you get in a “normal” school. For example, the 9th grade honors English is practically equivalent to a Senior English class. If your child has grown up in the system and doing fine - good for you! You may love this class. If you are testing in and not used to this, your child may struggle. If your kid switches from regular to honors English, please know what you are getting into. Overall we love it for having limited options where we are and the kids love the social life. 2 of my kids can only manage 2-3 courses a year though, due to the workload and rigor. It really will depend on the kid. I’ve just learned to consider the classes carefully and avoid communicating with the support/ admin, even usually the teachers.
