First, American schools implement an elite education. High school is traditionally a process of basic education, but in American high schools, social activities and cultural/sports entertainment are also essential aside from studying. At an American high school, you would find that normal class time would not go beyond 3 PM, after which students participate in various club activities of their own liking. The school maximizes the exploration of students' interests and special talent potentials from all angles and aspects, and enlightens, influences, and cultivates the students' imagination, practical abilities, and social responsibility.
