Parent: Where do I start to tell you much and why I love this school for my kids!
First, a short note about the school "We are an innovative, project-based 9th-12th grade learning community. With an emphasis on science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) and interdisciplinary.
The kids get real, hands on experiences. As freshman, they learn about a region of the country and a fruit from that region and a product with that fruit. They create a business plan on how to promote that product. They then learn from industry experts about marketing, and supply chain and many other facets of a business. Then real business professionals come in to the school and provide feedback on the presentation for their product.
As the kids get into higher levels, the projects get more diverse and harder and the students learn even more.
