Really teaches students to take control and be responsible of their own education! The staff truly cares about each student’s development and future, and they make it easier to graduate for kids who need alternative schooling-methods.

What I liked about the Academy of Arts and Academics was the educational and artistic opportunities. We were given many opportunities for internships with local businesses, team work with local artists on community projects, college level classes and community outreach. What I would like to see change is the school dynamic. It often felt too competitive or falsely prestigious.
Good experience for me, differs largely based on indiuvidual learning style, experience, motivation, etc. There are certainly issues, but the benefits of some curricular autonomy and cool classes outweighed them for me.
