Poor. I don't see many of the teachers doing their jobs to teach and keep things updated. I have had to provide tutors for my child the past 3 years since moving to this district.

My experience at Apex was very lack luster. Like another person stated the teachers don't actually teach they jus read off material and don't actually care if you understand what they're saying or not. The school isn't diverse and is mainly Caucasian with a sprinkle of African American, Hispanic, and Asian.

This is the best school I could possibly ever go. I am really happy about my parents choice.

I'm surprised by the negative comments from a lot of folks. We are new to the school, sophomore year, and come from Silicon Valley schools in California. The curriculum here is twice as fast (semester classes vs whole year) and my daughter has had all the help she has needed to acclimate. All of her teachers have taken time for her! Math tutoring is available EVERY day by 5 different teachers and peers. PTSA is strong and approachable. Communication with teachers and counselors has been easy and met with quick responses. Yes, the buildings are a bit old looking and yes, the school is crowded (we came from a school of 1400) but every school in Wake is dealing with this issue. Apex offers so much more for my student then what she could have received in the heart of Silicon Valley! More friends, more club opportunities and many more class options to choose from. If you don't feel the same then maybe Apex is not a good fit for your child, there are lots of other options out there and may be worth looking into. For us Apex is A+
