How has your high school prepared you for postsecondary success? Twin Peaks Charter Academy provided me the opportunity to learn rigorous material which makes my college classes easier compared to my classmates. Having extensive background knowledge is a great advantage to help me excel. Twin Peaks also helped me organize my thoughts and taught me not only what to think, but how to think.
