I'm looking foward to the groups I signed up for and also looking for to see my friends. As an incoming freshman, I look forward to this school helping me develop professionally and academically.

Some pros of Apex highschool include all the APs this school offers, the honors classes, and the guidance counselors. I like how it is easy to build bonds with your teachers yet some harder than others. I wish the school had an orchestra program instead of only a band. Apex High School makes a grand effort to promote clubs and activities and has a wide variety of extracurriculars one might wish to take, however, I feel like there could still be much more done.

Overall my experience at Apex High was fairly good. They have a variety of clubs and associations so that every student feels included. They also have a plethora of classes and electives that will satisfy different interests. I specifically love their art program and hear good things about the dance program. The building is beautiful and very clean and the sporting events are hype and fun for the students.

I am right enjoying studying in this school, I thought high school was going to be difficult for me, but this school was really fun to be in.
