Open Quote I spent a year at CATA, and left. Its basically a place to go if you don't want to bother having to go to school or do anything. Make friends with the principal (Mr. Friel), and you can get away with anything. Half of the students never even come to school, and all you have to do is claim that you have anxiety, and you'll never have to make up work. Kids walk out of class whenever they feel like it, and never come back.
Some of the teachers try, but CATA is all about fitting in and being friends with Mr. Friel. If you don't match the 'ideal CATA student', you'll be picked on until you either shut up or leave. Close Quote

Open Quote CATA is a nice alternative to a traditional high school. It's a public charter school with a college prep program. It has an inclusive atmosphere and a great location downtown. Academics are good and the music and art programs are great. Overall we've had a good experience at this school. Close Quote
