Senior: Indian Hill High School is an amazing school! There are endless opportunities here, such as a wide variety of clubs and sports. You can challenge yourself by taking AP classes, and there are so many to choose from! Most of the teachers are also very knowledgeable and hard workers, and our Principle and Vice Principle are honestly amazing. There are so many fun events throughout the year, like school dances, senior breakfasts, talent show, etc. One of my favorite parts of the school's schedule is Flex, which is a 90 minute time period for students to get some homework done or visit teachers once a week. It's so useful and I really appreciate that it's there! We are also very fortunate to have a very nice, clean-looking school, and we always know we are safe since the police station is less than a minute away. I'm going to miss going to school here! As for the downsides of the school, the school lunch is not very good and there is a lack of diversity.... Read 159 reviews

Senior: What I really like about this school is how it gives students a chance to be able to be surrounded by people with similar interests and goals as them. The academic education system is very good, as well as the arts education system. The students are all very supportive and accepting of each other and overall, the environment is very good. Something I think this school could improve on is the organization. I think it would just be even better if we were more organized. It's hard to keep track of everything going on because of all the different majors, but a planned out organization system could really help with that.... Read 151 reviews

Alum: Clark Montessori is one of few Montessori middle and high schools .It goes from 7-12th grade. I loved the school because of the sense of community that the students grow to overt heir years there. I loved the small class sizes, it allowed more help from teachers and improved my academics. I participated in three sports, the teams are not that large because of the number of students there but they do okay. The school preps students for college and practices for college admission tests. Some experiments that I left Clark with include a 8th grade trip to Andros island Bahamas and intercessions. Intercession are in fall and spring where you have experiences outside the classroom. Mandatory fall intercessions include career planning, college tours, and ,lifeskill. some choices for fall intercession include rockets and rollercoasters , farm school, Washington D.C, Underground railroad, Greece trip and more. I enjoyed my time at Clark Montessori and highly recommend it.... Read 108 reviews

Senior: I have had and continue to have a great experience at Summit Academy Transition High School.

Works Here: Gamble High School has gone through many changes in the past 4-5 years. The culture and staff have done their best to still keep the Montessori values. They now have a larger school that allows for more classroom space and have grown to the point where all of the rooms have full time classes in them! Moving from a school that was originally an elementary school into a true high school has been magical.... Read 43 reviews

Senior: My experience at Gilbert A. Dater High school has been going well so far. The teachers are really engaged with their students and are willing to help me, or other students with their work.

Senior: I pretty much enjoyed all of the AP courses that were available at the school, as well as the different variety of STEM fields that you can go in! Unfortunately, there was not any Calculus or AP math courses available yet but I sure re e hope there will be in the future. All of my teachers were truly supportive of my goals and dreams. They have pushed me to get what I needed to get. It was an amazing experience that I lived through. Although I hoped for a better equipped engineering program, this one did not do so hot on the 2nd semester's of both years. I am sure it will also change in the future as this school gets more recognition. Probably also needs a bit of management on the staff side but overall a good organization of staff....
