Students



We offer a compass to any student’s future. Fun and interactive, this life guide offers tons of up-to-date facts, figures, and information to help get teens beyond high school.

If we assume that we know how to do the homework we are assigned, we should be able to complete it in a reasonable amount of time. But consider the schedules of many high school students: we often wake up early in the morning; some of us have long bus rides; and many of us have sports practices, jobs, or other extracurricular activities before or after school. We have to make time to eat dinner and complete our chores. Now add on three or more hours of homework a night and you have instant stress, not only for students but also for their families.

The purpose of High School is to prepare students for a meaningful life in the 21st century;
to be a good citizen, economically self-sufficient and respectful of themselves and others.
