I lived in Towne Hall for one school year. Look into the education and background of the "educators." The year I lived there, background checks on staff were not done. There was no handbook for staff. No security on campus, building left unlocked 24/7 because "we trust our students"

I was a teacher here for a year. It was the worst school I have ever seen, and you could never pay me enough to go back. I have a child, and I would be horrified at the thought of her attending. Please believe me when I say that no one should go here.

Worst school I have ever sent my child to. The dorms are filthy and the installations need an updated. It is totally a ripoff. The academic level is very low and my son told me he didn’t learn anything
