“This is my third year here in the Storm King School. I definitely enjoy my life here. There are a lot of activities during weekends and after school. I am an international student, and I have experienced a couple activities I could not get in my hometown. The landscape here is beautiful, that is also part of the reasons why I love it. Teachers here are willing to help everyone at anytime. There are students from 27 countries in our school, so I have learned a lot about different culture from different countries. Food here is really better than most high schools. I went to other high schools in our area for sports matches, and most of them do not have food better than ours. I really, really appreciate that! Anyway, it is a good place to have fun and enjoy your life for me.” -Vicky from China, Grade 11
