So i go to this school and im a passionate skier for sure but my parents dont have too much money, and i wanted to tell you all guys about this school and maybe some of you might be interested, this is kind of a summer school, it starts in mid april (when the season is over) and it ends mid november (when the season starts), i really like this school but right now theres very few kids and maybe if i can get some more people i may get a scholarship and that would be the best thing ever, i'd be soo lucky to have it. In this school there has been some kids coming from other countries or states so you should consider it, and just let them know i referred you.

thanks for reading heres the link to the schools page.

I forgot to say they wont give you any problems if you need travel to like new Zealand or somewhere else for a comp or is ski related and you can also start this school from april-june, last year i started this school in June and well finished in November.

like a said before it also would depend on the income of your family, I would just call Rob and talk to him about it.

Wait so you only go to the school in the summer? And it still counts as a legit high school? Like good enough to get into a decent college? Also how are the facilities? Is it nice or dumpy? Is there a website I could look at?

yess it counts like a high school, the name of the school looks really good on a college application at least thats what they say and i posted the link to their page at the beginning but here it is again if you read thru it you'll get a better concept of it.

haha sack up kids and go to public school. paying upwards of 10,000 for a few months of "school" in a trailer with a bunch of racers, doesn't seem worth it.

Im actually realy interested. There seems to be a lack of higher classes (AP, honors) but Id be willing to pass that up to get back north of the mason dixon line. What do you guys do for team msports like football and baseball. And how many girls r there? Cuz if its like only dudes, that might take some reconsidering.
