I feel that my peers and I really connect with the faculty members, and I find myself enjoying the curriculum even in subjects that I don't excel at because of the teachers.

Small town school, friendly staff and students. The community is very involved with the school when it comes to sports and other activities. The students always come first no matter what, the staff are always finding different way to be better and different ways to teach and make class fun.

I've went to Amherst High School from kindergarten to my senior year and I couldn't have asked for a better school. The teachers were amazing, they are always out for each and every one of their students. The music and arts programs are amazing and the high school football team has gone to state three years in a row, getting second the first year and winning gold the next two years. Needless to say the sports program is pretty good. There isn't the widest variety of clubs, but the ones offered are pretty good.
