At the Fenster boarding school academy, our focus is placed on helping students reach high academic levels. With the lowest acceptable grade for any class being a C, even our scoring system reflects our dedication to making sure students understand and actually learn the material taught to them. Students who do not get a high enough grade at the end of the semester must retake the course.
Though our boarding school academy’s policies are strict, we make sure to provide students with resources they need to succeed in every subject area. From extra tutorials in our 8th period to study tables every day of the week, we encourage our student body to ap
ply themselves to learning new materials well. Special recognition is given to students who excel in their individual classes and in the overall semester. Through such encouragement at our specialty boarding school, our students continually strive to do their best and to improve their performance in academics.
