The curriculum is challenging, and if school is not consistently a top priority for students, it can definitely set them back. Despite the demanding workload, the small class sizes make for a more personal learning experience and a strong sense of community. The emphasis on Greek language and culture along with the critical thinking based (almost Socratic style) teaching methods are what set the school apart from others. Although some complain that the school lacks activities and spirit, it truly depends on what each class makes of their time there. It is difficult but very possible to receive a high quality education and still achieve a uniquely memorable high school experience there.
Attending Archimedean Upper Conservatory has allowed me to experience something other than regular. It may not be your average high school, but with such a small graduating class, we have become brothers and sisters to each other. Our school is a family with great teachers to encourage us every day. The only negative part of attending this school is having to learn Greek, but what else can you expect attending a greek school. This school prepares us for college while challenging us with difficult classes. Our athletics department isn't top-rated in the state, but no matter what support you choose to do, I promise you will have a blast.
My child attended AUC for 2 years. She is a high achiever and extremely social. AUC was a mistake for us. Sure, she got some AP credits, but the staff didn't care about her as a person. I took serious exception to some of the comments made by teachers. For 2 years, they couldn't keep an English teacher on staff. The stress level and work load is unhealthy. It's free, but you are probably going to pay for tutors. But, you cant talk about that because there is a stigma. Phone numbers for good tutors are very quietly exchanged. If your kid is so academically driven that nothing else matters, great, AUC is perfect for you. We transferred out and she still got into an Ivy league school. AUC is not the last Coke bottle in the desert.
