I love my highschool. I live in a pretty small town so almost everyone in my school knows each other. I live my teachers and my fellow students. I have lots of friends there and many academic resources.

I've went to Atkins Public Schools since Kindergarten. The school has it's problems but they try their best to make the school inclusive for everyone, and try to solve problems with both parties opinions in mind. They're very good at working with student athletes. Atkins is also a very safe school. Whenever a threat is made, they take care of it as quickly as possible. The only negative thing is that I feel like they could bring in drug dogs more often than they do.
