Review for Chewonki Foundation Inc, Wiscasset, ME, USA
Two of our sons were at MCS, and for both—here's this phrase again—it was a life-changing experience. Chewonki is remarkable in that it makes clear to each student how essential his or her individual contribution toward making the world better is and how great the power is of a community committed to change. MCS students bring their knowledge and fervor home with them and spread it to their families and schools. It's an extraordinary program, intense, challenging, exciting, and thrilling for parents, too, to see their children learning so much, so happily.
