Castle High School

"Opportunities for better academics than other public schools I went to. AP and honors classes are able to be provided, and they're up to par. By up to par, I don't mean just an honors project and that's all. In my honors physics class, I basically learn some of the stuff that it taught to students taking university physics 1. No calculus-based version is provided here, but that's where CC+ comes in. Staff can be slow sometimes (principal isn't here half the time, but I guess you could say he's busy being a graduate student with kids...), but it's an alternative for people that can't afford private schools and want a more challenging curriculum. Classes are online, so a smart student can come and not have to wait for the rest of the class to understand everything. Although no extracurricular activities are available, college classes can be taken and paid for by the school, since this school is a public school. For students wanting extracurricular activities, I'd recommend trying to do something at a university. I do research at Case in their Chemical and Bio-molecular Engineering Department under Dr. Daniel J. Lacks, though I was only invited through their Envoys program. Try that, it'll probably be better than doing extracurricular activities at another high school."

"Just saw this school, it looks great! I hope they have a good sports team, I heard they won states last year!"

"Students and staff show respect to each other. Students are allowed to be themselves and work at their own pace. Great teamwork happening here!"
