The school does succeed in offering opportunities to make friends however these opportunities could be substantially extended. The school somewhat succeed in providing esteem needs, in some cases students feel a feeling of prestige and accomplishment, however i feel that the school is overly academic and for students that don't excel in academic subjects esteem needs are somewhat lacking.
