As a parent of two boys who are in their 4th year at Clark, I’d like to say how much our whole family feels blessed that our boys have had the opportunity to attend this wonderful school. Both have done their best to take full advantage of the opportunities offered at this STEM focused school, and they’ve done well academically and grown tremendously as individuals through being several years in student leadership. Our only regret is that there were so many opportunities (e.g. robotics, programming, cinematography, etc.) , that there just wasn’t enough time to cover all their interests. It’s sad that several other reviewers would rather criticize than take advantage of what’s offered. Perhaps they just weren’t a good fit with Clark’s STEM focus. But know there’s a dedicated, qualified team of teachers and administrators at Clark who will help anyone interested in STEM subjects to excel in the field of their choice.
My son is in his second year and loves it. Yes, it’s challenging, so students can’t slack off, they’re strict about dress codes and attendance and it’s not the typical high school experience. But for students who are focused and disciplined, who want a good STEM program, with Honors and AP classes, it’s a great choice. To the negative comments I suspect they’re from angry disgruntled students who may not have done well in the school. Blaming it on the teachers without taking personal responsibility, or are from neighboring schools and just mouthing off. It just might not be the right fit. My only criticism, it’s not diverse enough. What gives? I think I saw one person of color (African American) in my 5 visits there. And their “white” population in large part, are Armenian. Likely reflective of the area, but still. Other than that, can’t complain.
The staff told us that “you will miss HS”…This is a complete lie. They do not care about the students whatsoever. They only care about their stupid robots. They advertise their school as if they give a damn about the students. Only a few teachers were caring but the Principal, Vice principal, the counselors, etc did not care. Mrs. Howe was THE WORST person/counselor I have ever met. She is RACIST and insults students for not “picking better classes”. She does not help anyone in any way. The Principal, Mrs. Kortoshian, always dress codes the girls for wearing “short pants/skirts”, BUT she was always wearing short skirts herself. The school rules are very unfair as well. Overall, I do not recommend Parents sending their children to “prison” school. If you want your kids to enjoy their High School life, please have them go anywhere else but here.
