I felt the environment was quite young and needed some improvement. they cared to an extent, however, there was very little sense of belonging or any place for those who found themselves feeling outcasted. the school needs considerable work..

Report
Princeton Academy is focused on what's best for the boys. With many other excellent academic opportunities surrounding us, we chose Princeton Academy because it is the best environment for where our son's intellect, physical well-being, creativity and spiritual life would be equally nurtured.
