Academically, the school is great, but the admin is pretty awful. They break confidentiality quite often, and seem to care a lot more about appearance than quality of education. We have been told that there was a student withheld from taking an exam because they had colored hair on the very last day of class. Also, there is selective dress coding. The only students that seem to get dress coded, are the ones who look less 'clean cut' than the others. For example, girls around the school would consistently break dress code by wearing shorts that came up much more than half the thigh, as well as covering that up with a long shirt (usually an expensive brand) on top, never getting dress-coded; but as soon as a less bourgeois person wears a skirt that is more than half up, or shows a bra strap on accident, they are not only told to change, but scolded by the vice principal.

The counselors reveal information to staff without contacting a parent, even information that is covered by confidentiality law. They also have a tendency to not investigate any situation brought to their attention, and have a victim-blaming complex.

I will reiterate that the school's education is top-quality, but unfortunately the administration falls very far short.

Many good teachers, especially in the History department, although there are a few teachers that try to skate through the year. Teachers can be disrespectful towards student ideas, suggestions or corrections, but otherwise nearly all of them are exceptional.
There's so many options, so many classes to choose from. The teachers were great, some were more strict than others. There were wonderful options for many fields that gave us an opportunity to try it early. Classes were enjoyable, theatre was great. Oceanography was a cool option to have in school. I loved that we could start Spanish in the 8th grade as well!
