Overall, my experience at Sage has regressed significantly throughout my educational experience, and was the ultimate deciding factor in me moving schools. I started Sage in 4th grade, I am now going into 10th, when I was looking for a more rigorous environment compared to other Boise public schools. The accountability of classes and teachers held true to Sage's "high standards" until my 7th grade year. This year faculty and administration drama as well as the replacement of several core subject teachers- especially math teachers began to affect my education. This being said, I feel it is important to mention that Sage's english program never took a toll and has always remained at very high standards. Additionally, decisions the Sage administration has made- such as implementing a mandatory service learning class (which had a teacher who was not dedicated to the class which resulted in their students doing the same) is one example of their poor decision making abilities.

THE SMALL STUDENT BODY WASN'T FOR ME. IT ALLOWED FOR TOXICITY BETWEEN PEER AND STUDENT-TEACHER RELATIONSHIPS. THE IB IS GREAT FOR SOME CIRCUMSTANCES BUT IT MADE GETTING DESERVED COLLEGE CREDITS NEAR IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME. THERE WERE MULTIPLE TEACHER/STAFF SCANDALS DURING MY TIME WHICH WERE NOT ADDRESSED OPENLY AND MADE FOR GOSSIP AND DISCOMFORT AMONG STUDENTS. RULES SEEMED TO BE ENFORCED MORE OR LESS STRICTLY DEPENDING ON THE DAY.
As a student who has attended Sage for 5 years now, I can easily say that it was an enjoyable experience in grades 5- 7.5, but from then on both the quality of my education as well has my peers have decreased due to an influx of unmotivated students. Sage was once tightly knit and provided challenging, quality educations. Unfortunately, this all changed once I entered high school, as Sage began to grow rapidly and couldn't provide me with all that I needed. I felt that the "IB way" was being shoved down my throat, and I found myself no longer proud to call this school my own
Parents, I would highly recommend Sage for elementary school. However, If you'd like your child to be able to pursue their interests and receive an individualized experience with people with common interests and work ethics, I would suggest switching . While Sage has taught me well and developed my critical thinking skills, these last years have been repetitive and un-enjoyable..But hey, that may just be me..
