My high school experience was definitely a roller coaster. I had my ups and downs with this school but if I am honestly I would not change it for the world. I come from a very bad middle school so coming to a school where you can get some help was useful for me. There was times where I would get frustrated with the way things went with the school and how things were caught or taken care of but I met very good friends here that I don't ever want to get rid of. I may struggle in math a bit but my math teacher is always here to help you. The subjects are sometimes fun but can also be very overwhelming at times. I've been in this school for 3 years now and I really do appreciate the experience I had in this school and I don't ever want to change the way any of it played out beside in the beginning of the year. I should of focused on class a bit more of course.

The School is magnificent and the connection with the local University is what really allows them to be a "Gem"in the Fairfield Area.

The teachers are very supportive. Often, my mathematics teacher spends extra time after school to help me. The school has a great teaching group who go the extra mile to help out with the students progress both academically and holistically.

My daughter is the 10th grade in the school. She became much happier and looks brighter than the time she used to be in a public school. She talks about her friends all the time, and more focused on her studies. She developed a good study habit. They offer safe and good academic atmosphere.

My daughter jus finished 9th grade in this summer. She had so much good experiences and learned a lot and have grown a lot. The school policy emphasizes sexual abstinence, or abstinence from alcohol or drug, no dating policy. My wife and I do not worry about these stuff for my daughter, and she is f...
