Work-life balance is something to think about. You don't want to have a kid burned out before they get to college. More time around the family dinner table is a positive.

A wonderful caring, supportive atmosphere which is student centered and driven in so many ways. The students get opportunities for on and off campus club meetings conferences. The teachers are very caring and provide numerous engaging ways for the class during their learning process. They are supportive and listen to the needs. Always a joy to drive to the lovely campus. All good things to say about the school.
