Educational curriculum is outstanding. The technologies are hands-on and prepare you for the real-world. The academics are strong and provide a good basis for prospective college students. Great staff. the teachers are truly wonderful. I was very lucky to have chosen this school. -Alumni

Outstanding school, couldn't ask for better teachers. Very tough educational standards. Classes are no more than 15 students. Students are very intelligent and under estimated all the time.

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Connecticut used the Connecticut Academic Performance Test (CAPT) to test students' skills in reading, writing, science and math in grade 10. The CAPT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Connecticut.
