Not your ordinary high school

Not your ordinary high school
 Rather than implementing a general high school education to students, Carver Center for Arts and Technology has been known for its vigorous interest in a variety of arts.
Carver Center for Arts and Technology's less than ordinary approach to education begins with its rigorous attention to accepting applicants.  To become accepted, one must audition, write essays, go through trials such as knife cutting for those interested in the culinary arts and several interviews.
"It was intense," Heather Malinowski, 20, said.  "But way worth it."
Although students are still required to take typical core courses, such as History and Science, they are expected to succeed in their particular field of interest.  A student with an interest in acting would have to prove they have imagination, the capability to listen to their trainer, as well as their commitment to acting.
Hectic and stressful, just getting into this high school would be an accomplishment.
-Heather LeMaire
