It's a decent school, but there are better ones. The middle school is a waste of time, so don't even apply for that. Electives, the few that are there, are only for high school. The school teaches its lessons slowly so now much material gets covered over the course of a year. Also, the principal seems to be new at running schools. The school seems to barely have enough funds to stay open and is grasping for money often with fundraisers. The students aren't exactly scholars either. This school does okay as the last choice for those looking for a decent education. Those that don't really care about learning much or college scholarships can go on to WJPS

Just attended this school last year and it made no sense. The whole order was poorly organized and felt as if it were missing something. Teachers were poorly chosen and acted more like a prison guard. Going to say that it sucks and hoping to transfer soon. See you WJPS PS: Uniforms are Bland and Boring, not to mention the price.

It is run but the most arrogant management team I ever met and I met a few. They actually do whatever they want its an experiment waiting to fail.

The schools principal does what she wants over whats needs to happen. Most of the teachers give little to no help with school work. The dean has a huge ego. The only plus about this school is the nice staff.

I love the fact that this school is small enough that the staff knows your child by name. And to make things even better, it goes from 6th to 12th grade. Who can ask for anything better.

Students have a great bond with all the teachers and can truly speak to them about anything. The programs that they offer are wonderful and really teach the students terms and techniques that will appear in the real world after high school. Students have opportunities to intern and apply the skills they learned in real life situations. Students last year worked the red carpet at the DoSomething Awards at the apollo theater last year.
