students and 42 teachers. The school is situated in Hälsingland countryside in a municipality of 11000 inhabitants. Great nature is close nearby.
For democrazy there is a Student board (elevråd) meeting monthly and an anti-bullying group for student harmony. We also have an association for school sports, a Students' United Nation-group, a 'Europe-group' for students and an ongoing Erasmus+ project 'Sagas from the past to the future'. Furthermore we work with a creative school project yearly. This year we have a writing school with an authorized author and the coming year we will work creatively to increase the integration of our refugee students.
We also have had a huge investment in educating the teachers in the Reading to learn-pedagogy and the state program Mattelyftet to develope our skills in educating mathematics and using computers and digital tools to teach mathematics.
Every student has his/her own laptop so international contacts and digital creativity are easy to manage.
Outside of school the students are engaged in bandy (wintersport), floorball (inside), dancing (Viksjöforsbaletten), horseriding (Riding school), Alpine skiing, crosscountry skiing and church activities.
The social network is well functioning and entrepreneurial spirit is always welcome.
