The Cambrian Academy was founded in 2008 by Dave Delgado to "prepare students to enter the universities of their choice."〔(Cambrian Academy )〕 Headmaster Dave Delgado has been in private school management for 20+ years. Cambrian Academy hires teachers with advanced degrees and limits the size of most classes to 10 students. Small classes, taught in seminar style, ensure that students have every opportunity to master advanced material. The school is located in San Jose, California. == College Preparatory School == The essential distinction between high school and college prep has to do with the primary goal. As a college preparatory school, Cambrian Academy begins preparing students for college from Day One. In addition to simply satisfying graduation requirements, students must research colleges and universities and work with the staff on a college admission plan. A College-Going Culture The question on students' minds should not be ''Will I go to college?'', but rather ''Which college will I go to?''〔http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/collegeed/collegeEd-create-college-going-culture.pdf〕 Each Wednesday morning, students attend workshops that focus on various aspects of preparing for college. In the lower grades, students focus on personality and aptitude surveys and set up their collegeboard.com accounts. These lead to learning about various college majors and the careers to follow. Students then move on to standardized test strategies and a semester-long college admission essay class. Meaningful Community Service In addition to its Student Council, Cambrian Academy runs a vibrant Interact Club sponsored by the Rotary Club of Saratoga. The Interact Club is responsible for one local and one international community service activity per year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cambrian Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
