As a student since the beginning of elementary school, I can say that the school deserves the fame it has: traditional school, pulled, but one of the best in BH (if not the best). The school has been increasingly modernized, and its highlight, for me, is that students are educated since children with the principle of freedom with responsibility: teachers will never be patronizing, but the consequences of our behavior, good or bad, will be always there. The teachers are excellent, each with their own particularities, and the student community is very welcoming (I often joke that no newcomer is usually excluded, but disputed, to see who befriends him first). The various activities that the college offers also help to have a broad human education, in addition to school knowledge. As for the content: it is pulled, but nothing impossible. Of course, the school has its shortcomings, such as the lack of focus on the entrance exam, which makes it very difficult for high school students, who end up learning in-depth content that is sometimes not very useful while the subjects that can define admission to college are not always so worked. Despite these shortcomings, I would not trade the school for any other, as the formation and the CSA community overcome most of its errors. Peace and good!
