My experience here has been amazing, and it looks like it'll only be getting better. The teachers know how to teach in a way that's understandable and inclusive. They give us all the information they can about the subject they're teaching. Drew - our principle - looks at what other arts schools are doing and follows in their footsteps (putting his own unique spin on it in the process). He always shows his passion for the arts in everything he does and wants us to succeed.
From what I've seen, the students and teachers here treat everyone with equal respect and kindness. This is this first school I've been to where I can feel safe from bullying and harmful judgement. It's been awesome and I can't wait to move forward!

My experience at this school has been absolutely amazing. The community and culture of this school is incomparable. Our school is all about creativity, hard work, and culture. We're a family. I study the art of theatre/acting and I've learned and grown so much in my past four years. The faculty here is amazing too, I've never felt so supported by teachers. This is the only school I've gone to where I can really feel cared for by teachers and ask for help. They're all so kind to the students, I've had a bad experience with any of the faculty members. They care so much about our education and our art form. You can't get the resources and opportunities like these at any other art high school. Such as: Professional equipment, amazing performance opportunities, overqualified amazing teachers, unique experiences, a whole course for ACT prep, etc. I could write all day about all the things I love about this school. I am so incredibly grateful for everything I've learned and experienced.
