Re: What is special about your HS, or School that you go to

My school is extremely non-traditional.
-It's a technology school (1:1 Student to PC ratio)
-We get our own school email and all of our assignments are on Lotus Notes databases.
-Everything is project-based.
-About 100 students per grade
-6 more graduation requirements in addition to California standards
-We have no music or sports programs, but we're allowed to do them at other schools in town.
-There are several Tech High replicas throughout the nation
-Important people come for student-led tours of the school
-We've been nominated to be one of the top 25 schools in the Nation.

Edit: It's New Technology High School in Napa, CA, by the way.
