Therefore, we never want any of our students to lose the 'kid' in themselves. During school hours we encouraged the students to act like young adults. By doing so they will be able to concentrate on learning and avoid poor grades, poor attendance, and discipline referrals. This is a choice that only the individual student can make. Watching your child transform into a young adult can be very enjoyable but will require your patience.
Children grow at different rates.

By doing so we believe students can leave high school with positive memories that will last a lifetime.
