at first when i came to this school the first thing i wanted to do is drop out but over the time i saw that this was my second change to fix up my life and with the help and support of my teachers my experience in this school have been great because it helps us finish school faster and also for a lot of us its a second change after leaving a regular school or for kids that want to drop out or have a lot going on in their life.

This school's mission is to help kids who would have otherwise dropped out. The diplomas are real. The teachers work very hard. At times the student progress is amazing once they buy into "I know I can!".
