[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. DD wants to be a vet, and there’s an animal science program, so this seems worth looking into. Does anyone know what it’s like socially? What are most of the kids who choose to go there like? DD cares A LOT about her social life. But she has anxiety. The small school size could be good for her. Having to go back to her home school (which is W-L) for dances or sports wouldn’t be good. She just wouldn’t go, I think, but she would be upset to miss out. She’s academically gifted but gets overwhelmed when she feels like she’s under too much pressure (she still performs well, but she makes herself and everyone around her miserable!). Is Arlington Tech a good fit for a student like her?[/quote] The Animal Science program is really great! But it is not part of Arlington Tech. Animal Science classes are electives. They last for an entire year and there is a lot of hands on opportunity with animals. It is one of the hidden gems of APS. My DD loved the teacher and the course. https://www.instagram.com/arlington_tech_as/ [/quote]
