as a senior one thing this school needs to offer more science and math classes.Even though were a science and math based school I personally feel like we lack those classes.We have more of electives but even then they just change around the names of the classes.And we need more college counselor we only have one for the entire school and its difficult because shes always busy but and doesn't have the chance to help other students out most of the time.

I'd like for there to be more opportunities for students that include clubs and trips. More advantages for the seniors.
2/7/2023
My experience at UAI has been pretty good. I feel like I have an education that is well up to par. I'm confident that I'm ready to go to college and thrive.
