If I could give this place negative stars, I WOULD. I went to the upper campus for 2 years…read more(freshman and sophomore year) and at first it seemed like this sweet little school that would help prepare students for college. Which is completely wrong. MOST of the staff is lazy and they may seem like they care for the students but their actions don't reflect that. Most teachers that taught at that school when I was there have quite literally LEFT. It was a negative experience for all students. The worst part is, even if you stayed, you couldn't get good scholarships (even if you were top of your class) because of the lack of students. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE never send your kids here. Go somewhere else with actual certified teachers. Don't make that mistake.

Please, please, please whatever you do - DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THIS TERRIBLE PLACE!!!! I will…read morenever forgive myself for sending my children here. The teachers are overwhelmed and the administration offers no support what so ever! The children get it even worse than the teachers. If you are not a sponsor or donate, then your child is blamed for things they did not do. All they care about is money. The behavioral specialist, the principal, and the assistant principal have no business being around children. I literally would not let them care for my goldfish! (Please do not let the FAKE Facebook lives/videos fool you). They are sick people! If you have ever seen the movie Matilda, this school is exactly like Crunchem Hall! The only difference is Ms. Trunchball was mean to your face and here they are FAKE to your face, and mean to your children behind your back. When you bring concerns to them they do everything that they can to blame the child, and offer no solutions. They scream at the children, say things to them like, "you got what you deserve." At lunch the children are told, "no talking, eat your lunch." It's like they all have silent lunch everyday. It's the saddest thing to watch. Every time I walk into the school, I always see at least one child crying or upset. They also LIE about everything. You can't believe anything that they say. Many of the children that I know are attending learning centers this summer, because they learned slim to nothing during the school year. They really need to shut this place down or get some new people in leadership - who actually care about the kids. If you plan to send your child here, I encourage you to reconsider, do your research, and if you decide that you want to try it SHOW UP as much as you can. If your child tells you something BELIEVE THEM not the school. So many families are leaving this year and for good reasons...RUN AND DO NOT LOOK BACK!!

This was a good school 3 years ago, but has gone down hill, quicker with every passing year. Don't make the same mistake we did and fall for the marketing and admissions hype. They sell a good story, but after you are in, the dream becomes a nightmare. We are not coming back next year and we dread having to work with the registrar and admissions to get our transcripts for our children.
