Great school for getting college credits and making future schooling more affordable. Almost all college expenses while you attend are free, essentially getting your Associates degree for free. However, they are a lot stricter on dress code than most schools to the point students should just wear uniforms because it is so hard to find clothes to wear. There are not many things to do to stimulate your brain, you just have to sit in the same room and look at your book. Although you are a student of the college on campus, you are not allowed to enter unless otherwise instructed. I found the students tried rebelling because of the lack of freedom, even during lunch hours you are only allowed to be in one place.
It was a pretty good school. It was challenging since it is a different method of learning. You basically learn by yourself but there are teachers available if you need help on something. It is done through units in where you have to complete 10 for each course in one year. Some courses may have different amount of units, but a majority are worth 10 units. Now, the great thing about this school, is that it is dual credit. There is no better way than gaining experience for college by doing college. You are given the chance to take college level classes but it is not required. You can even earn up to an associates while in highschool, which is a great headstart. Another good thing is the food. You don't have to eat your typical highschool food, instead you can utilize the college's cafeteria where there are various foods, including a salad bar. There are also many resources regarding college and universities. They even had college fairs for the students, which is great way to explore.
This school is all at your own pace, great for students who are looking for a little more academic independence. There’s very few students which allows for better student-teacher relationships.
