Little Adventure around Town (Local High School)

Education is probably the number 1 reason many people in Taiwan emigrate to the US, but many US high schools actually look like military base compared to the open campus high school two blocks from my parents' home. I sneaked in and took a few photos. A teacher got alarmed and asked me what I was doing. I explained and had a nice little chat with her. I wonder if I can teach kids programming here someday.

The junior high two blocks from my parents' home, the only green certified high school I had seen. I was also very surprised to see a Christmas tree on their  hallway 
The bell tower (upper right hand side) looks very nice.
The school court yard.
School gym. The design allows air to come in from the outside, so no air conditioner is needed in summer, very smart.
Kids doing exercise. The PE class can be much improved.
Classroom, very different from the old cramped classroom in my school days.
Classroom door, each window pane has a different poem engraved, nice. 
I caught the teacher's attention after shooting this photo. 



The bike shed, most students bike to school, just like before.
