Akron High School is an incredibly down the middle environment; in some aspects, it's an incredible facility and in others it falls extremely lacking. It's not better or worse than anywhere else, and it's decently balanced between good and bad depending on what you're looking at.

I have a very good experience with Akron High School. Our former Principal, Mr.Lu, who retired last year was very caring towards everyone and was considered a "Father to all". Our current Principal, Mr. Ricci, is doing a great job of getting involved and getting to know all of the students and teachers. All of the teachers are very nice and caring. When they see students struggling, they will try to help that student in anyway possible to help them to succeed.

I am currently a freshman, so I haven't been in the High School for very long. But the staff is amazing and always tries to help make sure everyone gets the best possible grade they can.
