"I am currently a student at Foreign Language Academy of Global Studies and I wouldn't give it a very high rating. It is an okay school but doesn't offer any sports and some teachers are kind of mean. Although some teachers are also pretty nice. Many of the students don't care for their education and the school is housed in a building were the other school have kids who are fresh out of juvenile detention."

"Although FLAGS is a wonderful school when it comes to academics,it is very crowded and not as safe as an average high school should be.We are all (nearly 500 students)crowded onto half a floor and share a school with students who have spacial needs or behavior problem.There are barely any extra circulars and only two AP classes and hardly ever any trips.I feel at FLAGS we miss out on the full high school experience.On the flip side the teachers are wonderful,they are the only thing that makes it worth coming here,sometimes i regret ever coming here..."

"FLAGS High School is a wonderful school! Yes, it is small in size but large in its ability to prepare students for college and adulthood. As a teacher I cannot speak highly enough about the quality of the administration and dedication of my fellow colleagues. I urge you to come and visit FLAGS and see firsthand how a small school is doing a great job educating the leaders and professionals of tomorrow."

"This school is very good in academic studies but after that there comes the question of their extracurricular skills and the question of some teachers."

"well this high school does not have any extracurricular activities that a normal high school has. this school is small of only one floor and that is in fact a safety hazard. no child should be put into those circumstances."
