 | | CSUS recognizes the need for a balanced education by offering excellent opportunities in athletics and the arts, but the classroom is the focus of the school. Students at CSUS develop into independent and successful life-long learners by following a program that focuses on skill acquisition and content knowledge. Though the school can be described as academically rigorous, the rewards of such a program can be seen in the daily successes of our students. Whether it is struggling through an analytical essay or an enigmatic laboratory experiment, we believe students learn best in an environment that challenges them to reach beyond what they know to solve problems using the skills they have learned. Students are encouraged to question their teachers, seek new ways toward learning, and discover the complexity of the world around them. |

(She did put her foot down regarding video footage, however.) Read more about Jenny>>
