Academic Programs - the school intention is to progress students into a four year college, but their problem is they have to learn how to walk before they run. Moving a student forward before they understand the subject matter does not improve academics for the students, it only increases the school academic performance on record to the state. The school design is still in progress hindering the performance of not only the school, but the student as well. This school should not be going trough the design phase now, this should of been completed before implementation.

I was a student at this school for the first two years of its 'life.' i thought that this school would be a good opportunity for me to go smoothly from high school to college, as this is a college prep school. the freshmen retreat was an amazing experience, as was the sophomore's challenge day, but after my 10th grade year I decided to change schools. one of the reasons was the instability, both in the campus situation and in the staff.all of the original staff that was at the school is now gone, every single teacher and office manager, even the principal. The teachers make a close bond with the students, and classes can be fun and more focused with the smaller classes. Having an advisor is a great thing for the students, especially if they stay with the same teacher and students for all 4 years of their highschool career.
