School staff is not professional - child gets hurt in a game and has to be rushed to the hospital.We spend over 6 hours to go through the process - child is on crutches - brings note from ER with instructions.Child can’t use stairs - needs to use elevator.School nurse tells child they cannot use the elevator because a lot of kids fake their injuries.We need to get a note from primary care physician stating that our child needs to use elevator.School Nurse states “without the note you need to use the stairs”Notice how there is no help from the coach - assistant coach or the trainer they have at games who supposedly handles injuries during games/practices… because there is a lack of internal communication on their end since they saw the injury go down.Only thing I’m looking for is some common sense as an adult - I get it rules and policy - but if there is ample evidence that this child needs to use the elevator - and a note from the ER - why is my child forced to hobble on stairs until another note is produced?The school administration talks to parents like we are children - like in the adult world there aren’t scenarios like this where you need something to make a situation official but in the mean time there is a temporary pass to ensure the hold time is covered under law….I am very disappointed with the people who are responsible for so many children and their cut and dry “policies” they enforce as they see fit.Smh

Planet, (from Greek planētes, “wanderers”), broadly, any relatively large natural body that revolves in an orbit around the Sun or around some other star and that is not radiating energy from internal nuclear fusion reactions. In addition to the above description, some scientists impose additional constraints regarding characteristics such as size (e.g., the object should be more than about 1,000 km [600 miles] across, or a little larger than the largest known asteroid, Ceres), shape (it should be large enough to have been squeezed by its own gravity into a sphere—i.e., roughly 700 km [435 miles] across, depending on its density), or mass (it must have a mass insufficient for its core to have experienced even temporary nuclear fusion). As the term is applied to bodies in Earth’s solar system, the International Astronomical Union (IAU), which is charged by the scientific community with classifying astronomical objects, lists eight planets orbiting the Sun; in order of increasing distance, they are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Pluto also was listed as a planet until 2006. Until the close of the 20th century, the only planets to be recognized were components of Earth’s solar system. At that time astronomers confirmed that other stars have objects that appear to be planets in orbit around them.

Love the diversity. Many learning options for students to choose from. Supportive staff and teachers are always helpful and push students to do their best.

Worst school in the world. Don’t let the nice building fool you. If I could give this school zero stars I would. One of the teachers said I wouldn’t be anything if I didn’t know what I wanted to be when I grow up. This was so disheartening and discouraging. Teachers should want to encourage students but none hardly did. Teachers have favors and don’t care if the other students aren’t learning. Students are very mean and bullying is prevalent. PLEASE do not go here.

The health teacher is never available to parents, never shows up to open houses, does not follow up with phone calls/emails when you have questions or concerns. The principal talked up the school as having only professionals working there. It only takes 1 bad apple to ruin the reputation of the school. This principal has a problem teacher and is not addressing it. The principal bragged about all the kids receiving there own chrome book for all homework, my son just got his a month and a half into the school year and some keys don’t work and we are told that it’s the best they can do. So far, not impressed with the way things are being handled and that’s sad because there are some really great teachers there. I feel as if the principal scammed us when we were visiting the school trying to decide which school is best for my child. In speaking with other parents, they also had great difficulty in dealing with the Health teacher and the chrome books given to the students. Looks like the principal doesn’t care. Beware of ASI - it’s not what the principal promised.

Very good school. The robotics program is lit 🔥 All the teachers are super nice. The school looks very futuristic. And every assignment is paper free. Everything is on computer.

This school is amazing for colleges, it’ll help a lot to go to college and it would look better but this school in general is just not it. Students can try and get help for a situation, but never gets actually help and everyone is so surprised when a fight or situation occurs. The school is so worried about lunch detention and dress code but is never concerned about more important things.

Ive been going to this school for 3 years now and I have been able to learn much better than I did in elementary school. This school is a lot more hands-on and the teachers make sure you understand everything your taught. I would definitely recommend this school.

This school is really wack. some teachers don’t even care about the students here. it feels like they mostly care about sports then the actual education given to kids and complain about the kids but never seem to actually put in the work to uplift their students and make them better. all they do is complain but never seem to help the problem. please take my advice as a student here at the ASI, don’t bring your kids here.

My son loves this school the Robotics department was what caught his attention (Dr. Po your awsome) when he was looking for High schools. He just finished 9th grade with Honors. His downfall is math and I want to give Mr. Roy the credit he deserves he was able to teach my son in a month what his middle school could not in the years he was there. Thanks for staying after school and giving my son the confidence that he can do it. Also big shout out to Mrs. Juda who made my son feel welcomed. The whole 9th grade team was awesome. Hope 10th grade goes as smoothly.

I was a student at Two Rivers High School before the merger with ASI took place. Although I feel that the school does a good job teaching and providing for the students the way the merger was done does not sit well. I think it was rude for CREC to come in and take away the teaching and medical professions from the students that came here for those specific things and make the school about STEM. These kids did not deserve to be forced into changing their focus because Two Rivers came into the picture. I feel bad for all those who missed the opportunity to take certain classes and have internships. RIP MPTPA you will be missed but not forgotten.

If I could give it a half star i would, this school is so terrible ! ALL THESE PEOPLE IS MUSTY WEIRDOS. If you love your son or daughter do not send them here in the name of Jesus ! First of all, these teachers do not teach you anything, I have been here 9 months and havent even learned a single thing. Second of all, they let kids get away with murder but if it was a hoodie on top of somebodys head all the teachers would have came for them ! ANYWAYS, with that being said 3rd of all.. This school literally doesnt care abt their students. Im sorry if your child goes here like I do...

Teachers have favorites, Kids arent listened toEDIT: when i say teachers have favorites, this can be a good and bad thing. Teachers can have students and classes they enjoy, but that shouldn’t make them treat others bad.

My first experience with this school was student teaching and now I am an official high school Spanish teacher at this very school. My fellow colleagues and students are amazing and we learn from each other each and everyday.

I cannot tell you enough about how much this school has screwed us over. We get here in 6th grade when it was Medical Proffessions and Teacher Preparation Academy, and then they change it to MPA for about a month. We have a new principal. Okay. They got rid of teaching. Fine. I can deal. Then it goes to Academy of Science and innovation. Thats okay though because the people who are in high school wont have to switch over - well be able to stay on our chosen path. Our principal takes a medical leave or whatever, which is totally okay, but at some point during it he lost his job or quit - I still dont even know. A few days after we get email we hear that there is a whole mother school with their own principal coming in. So here comes Two Rivers. Get ready for everything to change again. Teachers losing their jobs, kids afraid that they are going to be expelled for whatever reason (to make room for more students, but nobodys saying that) and we (10th graders now) have to choose a new path (computer science, scientific research, or engineering) This whole school is about science now. This is not what I came here for. Sure, one path was medical, which is definitely science, but we did not choose to come to this school for these things. We came for medical and teaching. I know i am not the only one who feels this way because you hear kids upset about it at least once a day. Were also not aloud to upload pictures? I get it, no electronics in school, but we cant even talk about our school? No. Im writing this on a fake email afraid that they are going to track me like the coward I am, but I felt like i should say something. That being said, the teachers here are fantastic and the students are kind. Sure, we have jerks and the occasional fight, but we still get along really well here. I feel like that when the new kids come in they will be integrated really nicely after the initial awkwardness subsides. I would have given this school a 5 star if it werent for the instability here. I would not recommend applying for a job here, as the teachers come and go so fast and are so easily replaced, but if you want a school where youll get a god education and have establish good relatuonships, were here. Peace out

This school is terrible. The teachers show tons of disrespect when none is shown to them, and they provide support towards class work that is assigned. Overall the teachers in the school is what makes it bad and thy need to hire new ones.
