This year, I had the privilege of visiting Princeton Math and Science, and it felt quite different from what I had imagined. The students are academically strong, their college admissions prospects are excellent, and the STEM resources are truly abundant; even 10th graders can take university-level courses. Moreover, it's not at all like a 'Hengshui Middle School' – the students are also very strong in the arts, exploring various forms of art and painting. The Assembly is also very warm and welcoming, and everyone feels very close to each other.
