The Spence School Reviews
Rating 4.42 out of 5 31 reviews
The administration is often biased towards students and doesn't adequately oversee issues. Many teachers also don't do as much as they can to help their students, and more resources would be helpful to dozens of students there.
I have gone to Spence for 4 years for highschool and have enjoyed my experience a lot- it's a great school!!
Spence is a good education but I do feel a bit out of place with the extreme wealth which makes it hard to fit in. It is good academics and the teachers seem to care about the students, but the cliques of girls can be difficult.
