"C3 is one of the greatest parts of homeschooling. The entire atmosphere is amazing. All the students are kind, welcoming, and friendly. The teachers are humble, approachable, and filled with knowledge. The classes are easy to follow, and don't require much time dedication outside of class. They are interesting and educational, but they are fun at the same time. I have learned not only about biology and speech and debate (some of the classes I've taken there), but about how to be a better version of myself. The compassion of the teachers and the passion of the students urge me to act the same way, and they subsequently make me better as a person. Every time I go to C3, I am excited to see my classmates and learn more with them. For, in this case, the learning aspect of a class isn't boring or difficult. The classes are structured in such a way that it keeps me engaged and is enjoyable to be a part of. It devastates me that, as of next academic year, I will be too old for the C3 classes. C3 is a fun, educational, and friendly environment."    - Ella, age 15
