(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Purdy is a great school. If got to chose any school to go to I would pick Purdy. Teachers are kind, understanding and would teach you more then you would ever think of, but it's also fun. There are early annoucements and spectakular assemblies. My favorite part is that they have all distrik choir.
