[quote=Anonymous]-academic rigor (math, sciences, ELA, writing, etc)

This depends on your particular child. An average student would find the work rigorous, an advanced student (like beyond one grade level) probably not. There's very little homework and not many students to push the academics.

-specials (languages, music, art, sports, etc)

This varies so much depending on the language. Actual specials classes have been more of a miss than the extra curricular activities.

-socio-emotional support and behavior management (middle school and high school)

Behavior management is a mess, and the school is large, so it's an issue.

-sports (all genders)

They do offer a lot of sports and club options! This is the best thing about the school imo.

-diversity (students, teachers, staff, etc)-we’ve looked at the available data from 2021 on student demographics

Very diverse in all senses.

-commute (do most kids live nearby…we don’t!)

Kids come from everywhere is what it seems like.

-technology (how much time are they really on laptops)

Depends on the class, but it's probably too much and likely not good for their eyes and development.

-other

lots of staff vacancies! Lots of people leave midyear as well, and your kid might be without an actual teacher. You might get lucky and you might be unlucky. [/quote]
