Sophomore: I'm at Grier as a sophomore day student, I came as a freshman, and I absolutely love it! It was definitely hard to adjust to a more challenging curriculum, but it has been a great experience. The academics are quite challenging, but there are levels for everyone based on their interest in/skill in certain classes, and the teachers are very helpful if you're struggling. I love how each person can personalize their schedule and after-school activities based on their passions and interests.... Read 82 reviews

Niche User: I attended this school my junior year of high school. I was accepted with open arms. I would recommend anyone to attend if you have a chance. I only had a hard time getting there each morning cause I drove myself 45 minutes to get there in the morning and come home after school. This school helped me become a better person and improve my life spiritually. The teachers here are amazing and care about all the students. The administration is really good and well managed. It is very small but so worth it. If I lived closer I would have attended my senior year too and previous years of my high school life. It is located in a good location and is safe for students. This school is a lot like a family and I am still connected to it and stay in touch with many of my friends that still attend. The clubs and sports are well managed and have great opportunities to be involved in. I love this school and miss it very much!... Read 24 reviews

Alum: As an international student I simply loved Bishop Guilfoyle. It is a smaller community, and people are mostly very supportive of each other. Though being small they really try helping you with everything you really need. AP courses are many which allowed me to apply to a good university and get in with almost a whole semester completed. If you are moving to the area, I would definetely recommend!... Read 35 reviews

Middle School Student: Dwight Global Online school is great for students with or without non-academic interests or careers. The school has helpful and friendly staff whom you can email whenever you have questions or need help with something. The teachers are all highly skilled in their fields which helped me to really understand concepts taught. Teachers also make sure that students learn in all ways, whether theoretical or practical. There are many activities and clubs through zoom during all-school meetings which I find really fun and interactive. In a zoom class, there are 5-10 students so discussion in class is much easier. One addition that many people love is that Dwight Online is a diverse school with people joining from a variety of places. Also because of this, the schedule for live classes each day come in a few options. Students can choose what time they prefer their classes to be, for flexibility and also to make it even with other time zones. Dwight's totally a great option for anyone anywhere!... Read 122 reviews

Senior: The Tyrone Area High School has a welcoming and family atmosphere. The teaching staff is always trying to better their teaching and help their students as much as needed. Having a variety of activities for students to take part in is very important to this school district. The community and students are very supportive and involved when it comes to sports. I personally had a very positive experience at Tyrone Area High School by being involved in clubs such as HOSA and National Honors Society. If anything could be improved, it would probably be the appearance of the school itself. Some classrooms and designs are outdated and could be changed.... Read 76 reviews

Freshman: My name is Riley Medina and I am a current 9th grader at the Shipley School! I can confidently say that I love this school and it's really helped shape who I am today. I'm involved in Shipley girls soccer and Shipley girls basketball. Shipley sports have always been one of my absolute favorite things about the school due to the excellent training from my coaches and significant team bonding between my peers. Academically, i'm currently take geometry, intro to physics, history 9: worlds in collision, english 9 honors, and french II honors. I really enjoy all of my classes this year. I especially enjoy the french and english department, with the books we read in english and the activities and projects we do in french. I would recommend Shipley to outside families because of how much of a community it truly feels like and because of the sports, art, and theatre program, allowing students to be able to express themselves and develop or strengthen passions for these categories....

Parent: As a parent of two children attending SSPP, I can't stress enough how much of a positive impact the teachers have had on our children. They truly care about the students and give them the confidence to speak up and find their voice. The school offers so many opportunities outside of the classroom as well to provide them with a wide range of experiences while building a sense of community. There is not a doubt in my mind that our children are going to be well prepared for the next chapter in their lives!... Read 18 reviews
