It was great to be a Raiders for 4 years. Helps my grandson and our family to build his character towards to his future dream in sports and academics. Thanks a lot for everything.

My experience at STA has been wonderful until this point. I have grown in many leadership opportunities offered at STA. It was a bit difficult to fit in in my freshman year but the teachers are really good at helping you fit in to find different clubs and activities you might be interested to find friends and many passions for different activities at STA. I would like to see a change in a more effective process of a lunch line and healthier meals in the cafeteria.
