Overall, amazing students, teachers, and campus. Perfect for anyone, if you have the funding and ability to go. The school itself blends brotherhood into the community perfectly, and with the honor code there is a promotion to keep you and your brothers safe on campus.

Overall, the school is excellent, although there are some issues that need to be addressed. Bullying is one of them, as it is not dealt with strictly enough. While there is no racial discrimination, some social discrimination exists in middle and early upper school. Some teachers need to improve the...
