School Reviews
5 8/6/2019
Decent, good school, with friendly staff who works with students to ensure they get education. A bonus is that you can get an Associate''s, but you by default graduate with a High School Diploma. There is a cafe in Building 5 of BCCC which is a little pricey but understandably so; downstairs high school lunch is provided.
