    Andrean has prepared me for my future. It has given me a myriad of opportunity that I would not have otherwise been able to partake in. The teachers have helped me to develop and strengthen both my study and academic ability. It has allowed me to get 99th percentile test scores that will open doors for me. This is a fantastic school!

    Andrean is a good school. Not all the teachers are great but the student body is. The school is very much worth it if you learn to talk to the student body. Everyone is treated like family and there is nobody left out of the group as a whole. Some of the teachers make you want to tear your hair out that's the biggest critique, but if you ask them for help you will usually get it. The faculty is very useful and can help guide you through anything you need help with. The homework workload is something to easily deal with until you hit senior year at least in my experience. It is doable though as long as you keep focus and pay attention in the classes.
    I had an incredible experience attending Andrean. All aspects of the school are remarkable, especially the teachers, extracurricular activities, AP/honors classes, and sports. This school also prepared me well for post-secondary oppotunities, including college.
