somewhat good teaching environment, with few good, supportive staff members, posing with false grins to â€œsatisfyâ€ their students. definitely needs work. the school does not take action towards bullying, drug violence, suicidal and depressed students, and are extremely biased and care more about sports teams than the well-being of their students.

As a student and part of the residential program,I enjoy being part of this community. Not only does it offer several AP classes helping to prepare my for college, but many advanced and rigorous courses and electives that challenge students in their respective fields.

Attended: 09.5 - 12 (2.5 years) Pros: -Diverse learning experience with many options to study including Biddeford Regional Center of Technology trade schools in the town over. -Large athletic program. -Free payed tuition if you live in the city. -I was falsely diagnosed with ADD in the 3rd grade, the school payed $3,000 to conduct test's. I found out that I had acute short term memory loss and they helped me find ways to remember things better. - Class's aren't crowded. (25-30 people per class) My web design class only had 14 people in it. -Offer night class's. Cons: -Often the teachers look at their job as just a job and not a passion. I found it hard to get help if I didn't understand something. I've had teachers stay after work for 10 minutes before at a public school but was denied several times here. -The main building is pretty outdated. - I noticed the boarding student usually got away with more. Example: A girl got talked to for being late to class but she explained that the Japanese students do it all the time. Sure enough a girl named Yuki was 10 minutes late to class as usual.

This place is something..some of these teachers tell these kids to Google the anwsers instead of using textbooks. There's this one Math teacher that basically treats my sister rotten. No respect or kindness from this guy. It's sad that my poor sister is being treated like dirt and once the teachers have been told the issue they still make it worse than ever...Disgusting place rare nice people..
