Small school, in a smaller town, with people who only have even smaller views. Close-knit, small town, where the only help you can receive is if you have been there from the start. Great for joining clubs, and building credible profiles, but the poorest faculty.

The teachers at the school are very helpful and are sure to make personal connections with you. They are there to talk with you academically or personally. Students are very welcoming and friendly. The school does its best to offer many options and opportunities throughout your time at the school.
