This is a diverse school of regular, gifted, artists and jrotc that are enjoying their associations, as they learn together with FIRE. focus, interest, respect and education.
The Academy is awesome at Auburn High School. Auburn does offer great classes and has very well-rounded athletic teams. There has always been some behavior problems but honestly what high school does not? It really is a wonderful school and the teachers that I have had already (I am only a freshman) are fantastic. The regular program I am sure is great also. Auburn houses not only the Academy but also CAPA (creative and performing arts) and ROTC.
All the education is great. There are awesome teachers.
As a student in the Academy program (Academic Gifted Program) for 12 years, four of which were spent at Auburn, I can speak to the many ways that the education has prepared me well throughout my time as an undergraduate student. The teachers stimulate critical thinking, not just regurgitating material, and I had a wonderful experience. The diversity of the school is a definite plus, though the location does cause some safety concerns. At Auburn, a student will undoubtedly learn as much outside of the classroom as in it.
The regular education may be nothing extraordinary, but the CAPA and Academy programs make this worth it entirely.
My daughter has been enrolled for three years and the school has been extremely underrated. She has been involved in the Academy (gifted classes) and the CAPA (creative and performing arts) programs and has had wonderful experiences. The teachers are extremely knowledgeable and have provided a great learning experience for my daughter. The regular school program, however, has had problems with discipline, but safety is stressed and problems are handled quickly and efficiently.
