A City Site Classroom.
Rush, Perry
Educational Leadership, v57 n3 p63-65 Nov 1999

The classroom houses a richly personalized program that builds strong relationships between students and business and arts organizations. Freedom, ownership, responsibility, and openness are underlying principles. (MLH)
