High Tech High

High Tech High is an unusual school in California, USA. There aren't any
blackboards or any desks, but there are many computers in the school. There is a
big computer screen in each classroom. On this big screen, teachers explain things
and the students can show their work to the rest of the class, so they dont need a
blackboard.
Students at High Tech High can learn all the usual school subjects, but they choose
and plan their own projects with the help of their teachers. For example, a student
can learn science, art and technology by building a robot. Students can work for
hours on one project. They can work alone or in a group. Students can also go out of
the school to learn more for their project. Some students visit computer companies to
learn from computer experts.
The tests at High Tech High are different, too. The students must present their
projects to a group of teachers, experts and parents.
Students love learning this way. They dont get bored. They work very hard, but they
enjoy their schoolwork.
