Edit
My school is considered a rural school outside a major city in the United States, but really, it is a great environment in which parents move to raise their kids while working in town or the nearby metropolitan area. After seven years of working in my current school, the only way to describe the students is diverse. Creative geniuses, young intellectuals, students finding their way in life, and some just trying to get to the ultimate goal of getting a diploma all pass through my class. The diversity alone makes working with them as rewarding as anything in education.
