This color documentary concerns the students at an alternative education boarding school in New England. The Lewis Wadhams School has students ranging from 6 to 18 years. The students attend only the classes they like, leading to a heightened interest in the subject matters of their choice. Frequent meetings are held where students, teachers and the principal have an equal say in regulations and academic and social concerns and discipline. The students seem to excel in their alternative learning environment and take more responsibilities in the individual and group when it comes to their education.
