Chattanooga "A great place to live" ????

[heavyweight]

Absolutely – all interested need apply.
I don’t claim to know the intricacies of the admissions process. I do know, above all, they try to build a well rounded student body.

We had classes that were remedial, standard, honors, and advance placement/AP within each discipline: math, English etc. Some students were all remedial, some a mix of standard and honors. It depended on the individual.
Some students were able to take tests separate from the class or allotted extra time because they had “test taking anxiety” or a different "learning style"/disability.

They take care of students at all levels and are most flexible. That’s part of why they have alumni so ready to contribute, the administration went above and beyond for many of us while we were in their care.

That said: This school is very challenging academically. We always had hours more homework than any of our friends in public or other private schools. I don’t know if they still have 2 hour exams each semester, but they sure made college exams seem like old hat.

Pediatric care is very good in the area. Please PM me if need a specific pediatrician or FP recommendation.


If you (or others) have any other questions, please let me know.

Sounds like Chattanooga is a great area and is close to what we're used to in Florida. But we want out of Florida heat,so we've been looking at Chattanooga and Cleveland too. We've been up there a few times and looked in that area. Signal Mountain is a beautiful area but a little more pricey than we want. Is there a good horse/mini farm oriented area between Chattanooga and Cleveland that's reasonably priced? And is there a need for a good dependable Towing company somewhere up that way?
