Many teachers are state-certified, degreed, and classroom-experienced in their subject areas
Courses with standards accepted by numerous accrediting programs/GA Accrediting Commission
Classes that are 90 to 180 minutes long
15-minute breaks so that students can have personal, follow up time with caring teachers, rather than rushing to another class

Supervised study halls, breaks, and lunch periods
Various and reasonable prices
Support for parents through panel discussions and Facebook page
