The teachers truly care about you and they do their best to help you succeed. It is an international school, so there is plenty of diversity for those who care about that. Great school

Overall I felt like it was good. The teachers were nice and helpful at times depending on the teacher. Athletics are good and successful. Facilities=y could be nicer for how money they make off of tuition.

I have not had any bad experiences with St. Croix Lutheran academy since I came over in 6th grade. Our teachers always push us to do our best and you can see that because over 60% of the students in the high school have at least at 3.67 gpa or higher on a scale of 4.33. Even though we may lose some great teachers, we always are fantastic at being able to replace them. No matter how tired a teacher is they always seem happy to be teaching and don't let it out on the kids.

If you are being objective, it takes a lot more FAITH to believe in the THEORY of evolution. In fact, o...

Most students are involved in some typ...
