Why I Chose Animas High School
I chose Animas High School because of the completely different style of teaching. Being a Charter School, Animas is unique in almost everything, from allowing their students to sit on the floor, to actually wanting us to ask them if we can do a project differently. More creatively. Animas is a school that allows it's students to have fun while they learn, with an inclusive, creative, and friendly atmosphere. This makes being there all day every day to not be as boring or strictly mandatory as a typical school atmosphere. The main goal of AHS is to prepare it's students for a world where manual labor is (mainly) done by robots, and the main use for humans will be our brains. This may seem absurd and unnessesarily futuristic, but for this generation, that is almost now. Also, we are prepared to be useful in other ways, but we are mostly encouraged to have an open, free approach to life.
