Stonewall is a small school, so you at least sort of know who everyone is. Plus, you can tell that the teachers really care about how you are doing in class and they want to see you have success. The teachers also care about how you are doing too, not just your academics, so if something is happening they will let you talk it out with them if you want to. Lastly, if you come to a teacher for help if you don't understand something, they will try to help you understand it better.
