This school is amazing very hands on. They take the time to help you understand, they explain it every possible way until you understands. The teachers will work with you and extend deadlines. The counselors are on top of it with scheduling college visits and having college fairs. The sports teams are excellent.
I’ve been attending this Academy since sixth grade. My experience has been great. The teachers not only teach but also they let us in on some life lessons that could benefit us throughout life. This school makes sure that every girl has a dream with her name on it, literally. The school is full of pride, respect, and most important the importance of our future.
