well the school is not the worst but it is definitely not the best overall my experience with the school was actually alright the staff were cool and so were the people yea there was some drama but hey that's high school.
The only problem I had with the school was it not having any sports curriculum, no gym and we mostly did a mile every time we went out and maybe some yoga which wasn't any better really but other than that I think it's an alright school

I absolutely hate spa because I’ve gotten chased with a pair of scissors by a kid and plus the work is hard when it’s on three different platforms like PLP Google classroom and edgenuity , I also got problems with at least three people or more. Lastly they don’t even try their hardest to help the students that actually need help and Ms melissa doesn’t have good hospitality to any students or staff at Spa. And also the teachers don’t give instructions that well and there is no security because the security guard quit the school and the same for the teachers. Plus there’s a lot of drug dealing and teen pregnancies and skipping classes. So if you really want to go to that school then I would not recommend this school for you.

I hate and love how my picture from like 8th grade is the front picture for the school, and how its like the worst photo of me ever... thank you to whoever posted that.

I've been here since 6th grade, now 10th, and id say it was and still is pretty cool. everyone's pretty much accepting (at least in my class) and I feel like I can be myself and people would think its cool, which is pretty rare in most public high schools. there were a couple of times when I really felt like leaving, maybe because I felt like the education wouldn't get me into college (it can, I was just paranoid) , and maybe because there isn't any lockers, it all felt unstable. But I ended up staying, because I didn't want to leave the accepting and cool people who were there. It doesn't matter to me that I wont get the "real high school experience", its alright to me that things here don't feel steady and official, because that's how life is going to be anyways. this is just kind of like a demo, but you also have a lot of fun and make memories along with this practice, until you have to step into the real world.

I am amazed that this school has only been open for 4 years I am a student at this school and the last school I went to was horrible but I will be talking about how great this school is. First of all the teachers are amazing and they actually care about me getting a good education also they even have great clubs and they are so fun and I am also a boy scout and the sports club reminds me of that also they respect everyone no madder what they believe in, what they look like, or what differences they may have . All in all this is the best school year of my life.

This school is the best school I have ever been to. I have went to five schools and this is the only one that I absolutely loved. There is no judgment or discrimination. There are ppl who like anime, ppl who are LGBTQ+, people of all skin color and cultures, and ppl with conditions. All/most of the work is computer based which is great. And there is a magical learning platform called the PLP and it's very organized. I'm in 7th grade and I'm looking forward to staying through high school too.

the drama is insane. the staff don’t do anything to stop it. the teachers cry in class and discuss their lives, some teachers believe they’re better than students because they’re more experienced with theatre making me feel like i’m stupid. if you’re deciding to go to this school i won’t stop you, but i’m definitely warning you.

I went to this school for about 3-4 months it was the worst couple of months in my life I understand that they are a new school still trying to figure out everything. Theirs is not that great of a school the only good programs are dance and vocal music so think twice before going there.

School is run like a cheap summer camp. It'll mess up your credits and you won't learn anything, and on top of that many students are rude and clique-y. Don't waste your time at this school, you will regret it.
