Viewpoint is an excellent school, teachers are definitely willing to help the students that are struggling in their classes. Viewpoint has some of the best counselors that are ready to help students get into college. I would say that viewpoint has a manageable schedule where you can complete all class work and still be able to join multiple clubs on campus. Some changes I would like to see is an upgrade on our kitchens food. I would also like to see an increase on diversity. Viewpoint sports is often looked away from as something that is not that important. I would say that the students who are playing a sport are really putting the work in and giving all their hard work to become the best they can be.The viewpoint community is definitely different. When walking in to the school you get a warm welcoming vibe from the students and administration. Everyone is kind and willing to help others.
The teachers at Viewpoint are truly excellent, care about each child’s personal welfare and truly will help a gifted child see their potential and a struggling one find their way. The campus is lovely, the food top notch. If you want your child at a top school, VP will likely get you there, but the price is not small.
That said, the school is woefully behind deaf in any type of social emotional education despite its self congratulatory attitude which instead of teaching kindness really only seems to teach that “the less fortunate exist and our parents give us stuff to bring to school”. Unfortunately, as a result there is a lot of bullying and elitism which for the most part goes unchecked. Codes of conduct appear to be enforced with much more regularity for those who are not big donators and the calls for money from the fund are relentless. Lots of choices for extracurriculars and aftercare, so decent for working parents, though. Good in sports for HS.

I absolutely love Viewpoint. I would not change my experience for anything. The school is so caring, and listens to students' voices. When students want change, the school is willing to listen and treat the students as adults, rather than subordinates. The faculty is amazing, extremely smart, and very caring. They go above and beyond to ensure student well being and happiness. If I could create a modo for Viewpoint after experiencing it, it would be "Happiness = Success", and I believe this is what Viewpoint strives for.
