“Bodwell is stricter about what public schools should be strict on, like attendance and uniform. It is preparing us for the real world. The education standard is more challenging than what I am used to. I do not like things to be too easy-I like to learn new things. I like making friends from every country in the world-and I am learning new languages, too. My Spanish is coming along very fast.” – Elizabeth Cussen, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
