What our students are saying....
"The answer to the question, “Where do you go to school?” is better than in a classroom. I go to school in my backyard …sitting next to the wading pool…, I go to school in my living room in my cozy warm pajamas on a snowy evening. I go to school in the break room at work eating a microwave dinner….Most of all, I go to school at the right place at the right time."
