Teenagers learn best in a setting most like the one wherein they will apply their new skills.

Teenagers need to learn to make informed decisions to be competitive in the free-market, democratic republic.

Parental involvement is an integral part of the teenager's education.

To educate students with the greatest efficiency, we must systematically observe. measure, and remove some of the variables that elicit resistant and rebellious responses of teenagers.
