ARIS, a really, really great school! You HAVE to agree! All the teachers are really nice there and it is not only that, the teachers put your best skills to the test and improve the other skills! Once, you are leaving ARIS you have improved more than a lot! I am not surprised ARIS is in the top 20%, because it is the best school ever! This is an actual student that goes to ARIS, and I feel like it is the best school in the world! They understand your worries and help you along the way! GO MINI RAIDERS!
