My Classes

How are the classes at boarding school different from public school? Well, let me first explain to you my schedule. Today, an ordinary Thursday, I only had four classes, spread throughout the day. During free periods I usually do homework or check my email. We only have school every other Saturday. A lot of people complain about this, but it is a lot easier to have a few classes on Saturday since we are here anyway, than it is to have them all piled into the week. We call Friday extended Thursday, but really Saturday is extended. I don’t really miss my Saturday, so much as my Friday nights.

Anyway, we have a ton of discussions. Class time mainly consists of our own opinions and thoughts being voiced rather than the teacher droning on for endless amounts of time. This allows us to better comprehend the material, and often adds to not only our understanding, but the teacher’s as well.

Oops late for class gotta run!
