I came across SVA (Squaw Valley Acady) while researching for a boarding High School for my nephew…read morein China. I also spent a day there. Students use lap tops during class with wifi access. A lot of emphases is placed on learning with a laptop. . (All wifi are turned off at 11pm at night.). Considering all standardize tests in the US are computerized (MCAT, LSAT) and most work environments in the US use electronic records exclusively, lap top in classroom is a good idea. Students come from all over the world with the goal of attending a college in the US. SVA has transformed itself in the past few years to focus on college prep for international students. Class sizes are small, usually less than 10 students per teacher. I noticed the students get alone with each other rather well. This is observed during lunch time. I see students from different countries sit next to each other. Dorm rooms are 1-4 students per room. Most of the ones I saw have 3 students in them. There is a microwave on each hall, fridge and safe in each room. Overall the rooms are larger than the one I used to live at UC Berkeley 20 years ago. (unit 1 Cheney) and much larger then the tiny rooms at Univ of Tennessee. Washers and dryers are free for students to use. At night, dorm exits have security alarms, hallways are video monitored SVA pride itself at offering a balance between academic and personal development. They encourage students to take advantage of it's location to learn many physical activities Tahoe has to offer - hiking, soccer, golfing, cycling, ski / snowboard. I think this makes SVA different from other college prep school. I have the opportunity to spoke to students there. Due to the many Saturday field trips student take, expect another $4000 or so in additional expenses. While the students like them, parents may be surprised at the bill.

The school also provides breakfast & lunch for the kids, which is so very helpful to our family, especially since Finn is such a picky eater. We are so lucky to have them and the program!

I have pretty much every mobile tool that exist. plumbing, electrical, auto repair, you name it I got it. But when I was younger, in middle school, I took wood shop and metal shop.

Well this is the place to do it. It's like having a wood shop, a metal shop, textiles, ceramics, lasers, plasma cutters, routers... And the name of the place says it all.

They have a very affordable monthly/yearly membership. Right now they are showing $60 a month or $500They have a good process to make sure that you are safe and able to work the machines.

We have been in 9/10-10/10 schools (greatschools.com) in Marin, and we're still not happy with the progress our children were making. We had learned of Creekside Charter via a friend whose family relocated a couple of years ago when they got a spot. It's a small school, only 1 class in each grade with 20 students. In six months our kids have gone from below or at grade level in their subjects to above grade level in every subject. They do require 50% more homework(at least) our kids spend 2-3 hrs doing their homework daily, as compared to 45-1 hr at their old schools. You'd think they'd hate it, but actually they're so pleased to be doing so well and succeeding that they actually complain less than at their old school. Their common core testing went through the roof (better than Mill Valley and Ross Valley!) Friday is independent study which takes my kids 4/5 hours(were told by several parents/administrators that as they get used to the higher educational expectations...they will get quicker as time goes by. Their screen time is around 30-60 min a day, as opposed to 2-3 hours daily as a result. But now it's a treat rather than the norm. We couldn't be happier. More importantly our 5th graders are thriving and proud of themselves, more involved and excited about school again (something I couldn't say the previous 2-3 years!) Outstanding!
