    What do you call a school with no tests, no grades, no classes, and no teachers? Students of the Net School and their parents think it to be the best school in the world.

    The school is in Rhode Island, USA. Dennis Littky opened it in 1996. The school takes poor kids who are failing (失败) at schools. Nearly everybody has already given up these students and their parents want to try anything. The Net School gives Littky a great place to try out his new ideas.

    "The word that most kids use when they talk about high school is /boring'," says Littky. "But no one would say the Net School was boring." Advisors(指导老师) work with small groups of students for four years. Students spend almost half of their school time learning real-life skills(技能), such as working for business, spending time with government people. Instead of tests, the students give shows about their work outside school.

    In fact, students work harder here than in other schools. All the students from the Net School graduate and can choose to go to a good university (大学).
