In my opinion , this school could use a lot of work . It's only fun when football and basketball season are around because that is the only time we can come together . My favorite experiences include becoming Vice President of my class , Secretary of the National Beta Club , Honor Society , and Technical Honor Society , and being a supporter of every football and basketball game as a Varsity Cheerleader . I would choose this school if I could do it all over because I've met many great people throughout the halls and classrooms.

Some teachers were good and some were bad. They were getting rid of the bad teachers before I left.
