This is great...excellent. Your school is a microcosm of your world.

Money,resources and limited diversity. This is very differnt from my world...large over crowded classes, budget restraints, large teacher turnover,inadequate facilities,limited professional develpoment relevant workshops ...I'll stop !

This is incredible. A very good implementation of some very good ideas. I hope it becomes more widespread.
