School Reviews
| 5 I went to Sion in the early-mid '70s, from 6th grade through high school. The academics were superb, and have stood me well throughout my career. More importantly, the friendships I made were lifelong. I am forever grateful that my parents chose to send me to Sion. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Ruthanne Greeley |
