As a senior of Abbeville High School, I have experienced various things over the past four years. I thoroughly enjoy the "family" mentality that Abbeville High students and faculty share. One thing I would change about my high school is the voting system. Because we are so diverse, I believe voting based on race/ethnicity should be abolished (i.e. our homecoming and powderpuff court voting systems).
