What makes small schools better than a large high school?
In large high schools, many students do not get the individual help they need, causing them to either stop trying or drop out. Because there are fewer students in a small school, teachers and staff know all their students and their individual needs. This allows teachers to focus their teaching on the specific needs and interests of their students. It also motivates students to learn because they know their teachers are active partners in their learning. Small schools also have career themes to keep students interested in school and provide real-world connections to school curriculum.
