School Reviews
5 9/11/2010
Everything and everyone is amazing. We are all involved in each other's lives for better or for worse and the involvement really helps with the acedemic excellence in Charter. The techers and administraters take their jobs seriously and do all they can to not only help students but steer them in the right path if they are having trouble. Counselors keep themselves available and make students confortable so they always have someone to turn to. Awards are given every year for a multitude of things and it does get friendly-competitive sometimes among students. There is also a lot of school spirit during school, at games, and especially within extracurricular clubs - which are varied and all excellent. Overall, everyday I've felt so blessed to go to a clean, beautiful school where I feel safe and guided.
