(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I went to this school and graduated c/o "98". Bravo and its staff played a big role in pointing to the right direction. I graduated college and I’m now a Product Specific Trainer for eBay.com. This school has taught me to how to be strong and be my own man. I recommend this high school not just because I went here. It’s because the people here actually care what happens to you after high school.
