I really have loved Jacobs High School. I transfered their for my junior year. I was very nervouse to start, not knowing what to expect. All my teachers were every helpful and have made me feel ready for college.

My most favorite part of Jacobs is the music/theater department. We became a family, and I will forever be thankful for the music teachers and theater directors.
