[quote=Anonymous]Global is a great program. I truly feel that it is the most unique program in the county - for the curriculum as well as instruction.  This is the program for very bright students who want a balanced life (rather than the true genius level geeks), so in that sense it is easier than SMCS/SMACS/RMIB, and is known as the happiest magnet. It is also a good blend of science and humanities courses

We are in Upcounty and my kids were really interested in STEM so did not choose global. It is a long day and the bus ride is very long for us. Our solution has been to drive them to and from school on way to our work and carpooling.

The program is really good and these kids really bond with each other like college students do with their undergrad dorm mates. The entire student body of PHS is really a bunch of supportive kids and it is not a pressure cooker environment because the kids and parents are not jerks.

One word of caution. There are a lot of field trips so you will have to invest in outdoors gear of good quality because these kids are out come rain, snow, hail or hot weather. [/quote]
