“I am from Dubai, UAE, and my experience at The High School has been one I’ll always be thankful for. The academic experience for me has been so rich, and the things that I have learned here, I know I wouldn’t have learned anywhere else. The teachers here are so helpful and welcoming, and that is something I think, only comes with a school this size. They reach out to you in a way that feels like home. I learned a lot from my peers here, so many lessons exchanged through friendships, cultures and classes together. Coming to this school was a great opportunity for me to explore myself and discover my interests. I’ve learned a lot about my strengths and weaknesses, and I can definitely say this school changed me for the better, for which I am glad.”
