I like anything that challenges the notion of what education "should" be, and this does just that. This school seems to allow students to directly be a part of all processes, which is great. It should allow them to learn how they work, such as the judicial process, and then question it afterword. Traditional education leaves that out of the mix, to most students. Obviously college and standardized testing is an issue with this system. Another is choosing what to take, the student may take a course you love and do well in it. But surely there are other subjects out there that you're not taking due to a preconceived notion of it, that the student could end up loving, but will never have the opportunity to find out if that's the case.
