That being said, the school does excel in some regards, specifically their Science program. The school has invested time and money in well-educated Science teachers, namely in the Anatomy and AP Biology departments. Unfortunately, this was not the case with the Math Department as many of the students had failed their AP Calculus exams during my time. I did not realize how poor the math department was until my college classmates had explained that their public school class average was a 4.5 on the AP Calculus 1 and 2 exams. While this may be, in part, due to apathy on the students’ part, we did not feel as if we were being challenged enough to properly prepare for the AP Calculus exam. For example, our class time comprised of 10% homework review, 20% learning material, and 70% free class time. The class exams were not challenging and students were able to ask for hints from the teacher during the test. In addition, my sister who had also taken the AP Calculus exam had taken it as an independent study course outside of the classroom. It was a self-taught course where she was only assigned homework to be graded by her teacher. She was one of the only, if not only, students who had passed the AP Calculus exam that year.
While the school curriculum requires immense changes, the faculty is quite family-centered and approachable. They care very much for their students’ well-being both academically and emotionally. The extra-curricular activities like the theater department is also commendable and receives vast sums of money/donations for their productions. On the whole, my experience with the school was average. I enjoyed myself while there, but it was only after my experience did I realize how much of a disadvantage I was placed at academically when compared to students of my college campus. I would recommend this school if it is important for your child to grow up in a religious school as 1/8th of their class time will be dedicated to their religious growth every year — a sentiment that I did not fully appreciate or take advantage of as I am agnostic.
