2/10/2015

This year Amherst County High school received a new principal who is trying to be an enforcer of policies. He is also very involved with the student body and can be helpful if students allow him. The assistant principals have stepped back this year, but still are doing their jobs.

There are only a select few clubs available to students. The most prominent organizations are the theater department and the choral program. These organizations receive little funding from the county and mostly rely on the students, parents, and patrons.

Amherst Middle School can be described as unique. Teachers not only invest their time and energy into the students' education, but they also care about individual lives. Students often return to visit once they have moved to the high school and remark how much they miss their middle school teachers....
