I think academically my experience was very good at Argos. Teachers make us think critically, work outside of the box, and challenge our minds a lot. However, I didn't always feel as thought the resources at Argos were very good. Our school didn't have much school spirit after COVID hit us. But I think everywhere lost traditions and such after COVID. There was lots of opportunities presented and always people willing to help you succeed.

Overall the school is pretty good. There are multiple great teachers. The best parts of my experience come mostly from the music and agriculture departments. My worst experiences come from just a few teachers, however most of the teachers are very good.

Most teachers go above and beyond if a student is willing to work to achieve their best. I have 2 children, one that graduated and is in college, the other...
