"I like Highland because of the size.  It is small enough that it creates a family feel amongst the students.  This helps all the classmates bond with each other and accept any and all new students into the class.  The family setting helps with classroom studies and talking to teachers and peers for help.  It is because of the size and family setting in the school that I enjoy Highland so much."
