Lighthouse School
My wife and I visited Beaver Island for the first time 2 weeks ago. On our tour we passed the Lighthouse School. Can someone tell me about this school? Is it a typical public school or is there more to it than that?
"The Lighthouse school is a residential alternative high school education program which offers students (ages 16-21) an opportunity to return to school, change environments, and hopefully, acquire a new perspective on education & life.
Eligible co-ed students are referred from a ten-county geographic area of Northwest Michigan.
A rigorous academic schedule includes 7-days/week routine."
Also here is a site they've put together about their restoration of the lighthouse itself: http://www.beaverislandlighthouse.com/
