Overall, going to this school has been a very positive experience for me. Unlike schools like High Road, this place has an environment based on love rather than fear, and the students thrive because of it. I feel like I have to mention High Road because of how bad of an experience I had there. I like to think maybe a parent considering that school may see this and reconsider. High Road was very cold and strict, the staff was almost inhuman, and violence was the answer to every problem their students had. The teachers here feel very human, and they very much care about their students. Their problems were de-escalated rather than escalated further. The students are so much less violent than that of High Road, but they obviously house the same type of kids. It may not be a perfect school, but it's leagues ahead of High Road in the way they treat their students. I was very hesitant to trust this school because of my experience with High Road, but I am very glad I did.
