“Man! I only got a 1450 on my SAT’s! I have to take them over again!”
I heard this type of remark from friends and fellow students all the time in high school. My high school was rated one of the best public schools in the country, and my thinking was challenged more in some of my high school classes than in some college classes I took. Unlike many people, I loved my high school experience and I will always be grateful for it. But it did have its drawbacks. Not only were the students I went to school with incredibly bright, but my high school was minutes away from the prestigious Stanford University, and I sometimes felt stuck in a sea of intellectual superiority.

Hi guys. Well I’ve started at my new school and I’m now having a great time so far. I have found some excellent friends who express loads of joy, peace, and love towards me and my other mates. I also get to eat loads of Indian curries at school, which I am slowly starting to like!
To be honest after the first few weeks at my new school, I was feeling quite low, I missed my old friends and my grades were going down. There were many topics I had not previously studied.

Hi my name’s Lizzie and I’m 15 years old. I come from England, however I’m starting a new life in India. When my dad told me that his work had given him the opportunity to relocate him and his family to India to live for a couple of years, I was so excited. I thought it was a really awesome idea.
Two months later after some careful thinking and concluding that this was God’s plan for us, we were in India for a look-see visit. We visited the schools, the apartments, shopping centres, etc., We saw everything we needed to see before we came to live here the following month. (more…)
