I do not have a worst part of High School really. My best experience was the teachers. They are honestly nice and care about the students, which is refreshing and nice to know they care.

Amory High School was a wonderful experience where I learned and developed life skills. I learned skills such as how to: write a paper, speak spanish, write spanish, read a two books in under two weeks, and most importantly how to solve math problems. This is why I believe Amory High School is a place that every parent should send their kids to.

it was definitely the worst school I've ever been to in my life. I recommend you definitely home schooling your kids before you send them here. if you aint somebody you're nobody. they just don't plain care about you unless your last name is good. if you get into any type of trouble the teachers make snobby comment about you to others when it has nothing to do with them. once again if your not someone don't even think about going to play any sports because your not crap there or to the coach.
