A center for educating middle grades (6 - 8) students in Virginia who have had difficulty succeeding in a traditional school. Smaller classes, more tolerant teachers, social skills instruction, and an alternative method of working with kids are all parts of the alternative program.
The goal of the school is to re-teach the students and help them learn to participate in the more-structured atmosphere of a traditional school. Helping them learn to become active participants in their own education is a primary goal. Reducing the frequency of unacceptable behaviors is another goal.

Get the Swaggily self-centered mug.Usually someone utterly, totally useless, but can be applied to inanimate objects. Lacking any empowerment, thus going so far as to be inactively obstructive.
Etymology: in the UK a number of large companies operate call-centres. When one attempts to call these to complain, the usual response from the responder (the call-centre operative) is feigned interest in the issue, involving lengthy explanations, then the final response is that they cannot authorise the issue in question as due to lack of authority. The issues can be of any magnitude. When asked to be passed to a manager, they claim the manager is unavailable and will call back (this is the inactive-obstructive part). This never occurs, so one calls again. The situation recurses.
