“Bodwell provides lots of structure, but also treats us like people. I feel respect from every teacher and administrator. We learn a lot more in our classes, compared with other schools I have attended. Our classes are longer, which is much better than short periods when nothing much gets done. I love learning about different cultures. There are people here from countries I always wanted to know more about.” – Kayla Buksa, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
