I really like the academics and the teachers. The only problems I see with the school is they really push athletics and it seems athletics are more important than academics.

In the two years I attended Ariton High School I was taught a lot. Not only was I educated academically, I was also taught about life and how to become the best person I can be for myself. I can say that there is not much I would change about the unique small town I love to call home.
