There are so many opportunities! The environment is conducive to success, and I have loved the collaboration that is encouraged by the school. I definitely recommend doing AP Capstone and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.

Enloe is great! It has the best arts and academics in the state. I have to say that the student to teacher ratio listed here (1:17) is ridiculous. I only have 1 class with fewer than 31 students and that's because it has 3 years worth of prerequisites. With that said, the teachers we have are fantastic, and there are high expectations from the students.
Enloe is especially well known for its academic competitiveness, yet also known for the diversity and talent-based programs. I can't say that once I graduate, I'll miss the 'loe but I can say that I very much enjoyed my time here. There are very Enloe-specific things that you'll only understand if you go/went to Enloe, simply because the experience is so unique. My favorite thing about this school is the diversity of people in relation to race, but also background, religion, and ideas. We don't just have Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, we have Pakistanis, Indians, East Asians, Spanish, Portuguese, Brazilian, Ethiopian, Russian, French, German, and many other people of a multitude of colors.
