    My experience at A-Tech has been great! I went from being a quiet and reserved person freshmen year to being confident and outgoing my senior year, I truly think this was thanks to A-Tech's friendly environment. You would be surprised by how inclusive and friendly students here are. I especially love the fact that there seems to be very litle separation between grades as people make close friends in every grade and underclassmen aren't afraid to approach upper classmen for help.

    As a current student, the feeling of security at Advanced Technologies Academy is amazing. As all the students have applied to be there, the culture around being at school is something unimaginable for a highschool. Nonetheless, in sum, this school provides great program areas, such as engineering, computer science, and architecture (some of the most popular), providing grand feelings of necessity to all the students. Because of wanting to be there, the school's culture is reassuring. In addition, the staff is selected masterfully, providing a great education to all of the students there. The remainder of the staff is also amazing, as the student body refuses to tolerate staff they find to be of disservice. In conclusion, the school is amazing as all within the campus find a form of comfort.
    The students at this school all share some sort of interconnectivity. There are no cases of bullying that I have seen, and all students treat each other equally and with kindness! As for the learning environment at A-TECH, the classes provide a challenging yet engaging course. The teachers are very helpful and supportive towards students, and all of the teachers are extremely fit to be teaching. I have had no problems with receiving a good education here at A-TECH. The clubs and activities at A-TECH are one of the main attributes A-TECH is known for. With around 60 clubs and activities, there is a place for every student to fit in. Many of the clubs started at A-TECH have been started by students with their own personal interests, so they really do provide a place for any student to fit into, and the diversity of clubs at this school is unlike any other high school.
