I teach alternative students. These are students that are failing out of regular public schools for a variety of different reasons. Our students often struggle sitting through classes and really appreciate hands on classes. Many of our students come from backgrounds where their parents don't know how to academically help their kids. Many of our students are parents themselves and struggle finding the time outside of school to focus on school work. Because of all these unique student our staff tries to create an inviting school for both students and parents. We provide many interactive opportunities for our students, and our smaller class sizes and in-class work help support many of the struggles our students had at their previous schools.
