Personally, I don't consider myself that smart so this school has taken quite a toll on me. It's only my second year at Clark in the AMSAT program, but I already feel burned out. There's a lot of work involved but it depends on the student. Some are acing like 7 AP classes in one year, while others such as me, are struggling with one AP class that's required. In general, the education is pretty decent but there are a few teachers teaching styles that I reallyyyyyy didn't like and I'm a pretty tolerant person. Other than that, I'd say Clark is just your typical "advanced placement" high school filled with unique people who are all freaking GENIUSES!

Disrespectful coaches and teams. But especially the coaching staff who allows their players to be disrespectful and seem to be encouraging it I would be embarrassed. It is amazing that the parents think this is acceptable behavior from their coaches and their sons. Part of being a coach is to teach them to be respectable productive members of society be gracious in victory and become leaders. Too bad this lesson is lost on the coaching staff Instead of keeping their players in line and telling them to tone it down they engaged in the same activity and in some cases instigated it.

AMSAT and Orchestra student attending 9th grade. Staff and teachers have been very helpful and Contact response is immediate.So far much better than our previous experience at Hyde Park MS.In this magnet program for the education since the 6th grade. It's difficult but not impossible, if your child is tough, intelligent, determined, and hard working.I suggest all 7th graders start testing SAT and ACT to join young talents programs at Duke and John Hopkins Universities to open those doors. My son did and it is having a very positive effect on him by having such high scores and getting him recognition.

I attended the school my junior year & my experience was horrible the school was crowded, I couldn't walk in the hallways, in the classes students were on the counters. The teacher on their phone. In an "advanced" class I had the students were rude & the teacher didn't even teach, also there was a lot of bullying. Worst school I've been to.
