The best education I've ever received. They take their time with their students, they find fun or creative ways that'll best suit their lesson plan. The class work is moderately slow paced but a lot is covered over the course of time.

The value in this school is not in the school itself, but in the fact and opportunities it serves up to students from every angle. Things such as dual enrollment (with a good college that loves the dual enrollment process as well), active encouragement of local clubs, and commitment to the community it resides in.
