I am so glad I went to SAEL. For my freshmen year, I went to a different school and since I switched I have been so much happier. I found a family at SAEL, all of my peers are kind and it feels like there's nobody in my grade that I'm not friends with. All of the staff are also really nice and the way they teach is amazing. It is a smaller school so there is more personalized teaching and I've found this very helpful for my academic endeavors. I would honestly recommend SAEL to anyone who's thinking of applying.
