The school is academically rigorous, but has been living on its reputation for many years. As an alumnus, I remember the caring nature of the teachers and administration in the 1980s, but sadly that culture is all but gone. There is strong favoritism to large donors and the environment is more about what the school has aspirations to do than what it actually does. The administration is tone deaf to constructive criticism and is constantly trying to backfill jobs as good teachers leave in pursuit of other schools. For those who are considering CSG - caveat emptor.
I graduated here quite recently. Although the academics lived up to expectations, many of the great teachers I connected with have moved or retired. The school has an unacceptable pattern of favoritism among donors, as well as an extremely pretentious vibe from the administration. Additionally, the environment is emotionally draining. I earned decent marks, but was constantly steered away from the colleges I wanted to apply to, which I ended up getting in to. I am now at a top university, successfully pursuing a degree in a STEM field, which I was told there I would never be successful in.
I have had the opportunity to be very active in my community with amazing extracurriculars such as theater, athletics, and service. At CSG no certain person does one specific club or activity it is cool to be active. The teachers care about getting to know them as a person. CSG creates a very close knit community because of its small class size. There is a lot of free time in the highschool which allows for quality time with peers and studying.
