Open Quote I recommend not going here if you are a good student who wants to succeed. It is harder to succeed at this school because the teachers are not that great. Teachers here get angry if you ask them a question. They hate answering questions in general. There are way too many students here from the bad side of Toledo and it is effecting the whole lot of the students. But if you are a student that is not mindful of your grades and you come to school purely to have fun and not study,also you like hurting people's feelings, and your bad grades do not bother you, this is the school to go to! Otherwise, I recommend going to other schools around the area such as Notre Dame Academy or Ottawa Hills. This school is good for welcoming a new student because you do not feel that pressured to make a lot of friends all of a sudden, but I think that is the only positive thing about Southview.
