I like the ideas of more indepth classtime. I think creative electives in addition to the traditional courses would be something I would look for in a school (ie: various music or art courses)

Just out of curiousity I asked my dd7 what would make her school better and her response was for her to be able to take chemistry and other science classes without having to wait until she's older. wink hehe. She also said that she'd like to have horses on campus so you just never know what answers you'll get when you ask a question like that! haha...

I wish you luck with this endeavor!
