I love the staff at Arcadia High School. Some of my teachers are always trying to encourage me to be the best I can be. They give me extra help when I don't understand different topics. My counselor is an extraordinary person because she keeps me abreast to what I need to do to improve and attain my goals. My school needs a makeover. The school was built in 1976 and have not had any renovations done. We need more elective class and course that involve doing things for those who do not plan to attend a two or four year college.
