He goes to Phillips Exeter Academy, where Zuckerberg once matriculated. Students' voices are heard through the Harkness method of teaching. There is plenty of opportunity for students to grow curricularly (e.g.,dynamic chaos theory in math, senior projects, though not required ...) and extra-curricularly (e.g. competition robotics, physics, bio,chem clubs, etc ...) which may not be a norm in most public or even private schools.

I have yet to finish processing reimbursement. LOL. His parents pre-paid for this project.

All I did was provide him the space and time to work on the project ... his parents funded the entire project, but will get reimbursement soon. It's the great minds, and the desire to have meaningful projects that make Exeter such an awesome place. Byran is one of a kind!!!!
