Sales and net margin are both projected to grow at 20%, well ahead of industry averages. Yes, the P/E is high, but it has strong financials and stable earnings. Should perform well over the long-term.

This company has an unusually steady upward trend in sales and earnings, and the near future should be a good environment. Nice growing dividend. I am somewhat uncomfortable with most of the education companies, but this company seems to have the right areas for meeting continuing needs.

Already trading at 32x earnigns. While this is a strong company, if the economy recovers in the next 12 months STRA not keep pace with the broader market.
