Open Quote I am a Student here at Phillip O Berry and my experience so far has been great. It is a STEM school and offers courses that other schools may not, and most of the staff is great. The counellors are wonderful and are very helpful with finding courses, internships, volunteer work and etc that are suitable for me. The students are hardworking and friendly and there is low to no percent of bullying. Close Quote

Open Quote This school does provide some technology courses that other schools do not but it is filled with uncaring AND talent-less teachers along with numerous students who simply want to cause trouble and it DOES NOT create a safe environment for students to learn in. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
