High Peaks Elementary School
This school is a good fit for a very small group of students--those who are highly academic and who love competition. For others it can be a miserable experience and one that will be horrible for their self esteem. Although there the majority teachers and staff are hard working and professional, there are a few glaring exceptions who are very negative and abrasive.
