This is where my son studies and this should be telling of how I feel about this school. It's not the best in Greece but certainly a top 10, with a reasonable budget. The teachers are very helpful, reachable any time any day. Management is caring and is always improving the way things are done. Great online interaction through the ManageBac platform. I do everything electronically - never had to go to the school and stand in some queue. Daily updates on every aspect of the school life through emails. Particular strength of the school is its elite athlete training program where kids that want to excel in sports are not only welcome but actively helped and promoted. Interesting detail is that the parents of the students are wealthy of course, but not pretentious, which is all too common in other schools of this caliber. Very warm atmosphere with true non-superficial relations that will last a lifetime.
