My school has many great classes like automotive,ag mech,ag science,finances and economics but the food served and how some of the teachers and staff treat students is ridiculous and needs to be dealt with.

I have really enjoyed going to school at Southern Nash High School. I feel as if my school is like a family and everyone is closer to one another than in other schools in the district. Our school teaches us to be kind and respectful and it feels very welcoming as I spend every day learning here.
