REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThe classes are small enough that the teachers reach out to help you understand that material; yet the classes are large enough that you don't feel like you're the only there. Usually around 20-25 per class. They pack a lot of knowledge into a class period and you definitely don't want to miss a class.
Amanda from Hartland, WI
the class sizes were great where i didn't feel lost in a sea of students and the teachers really got to give you individualized attention
