Buchanan High School had some the best teachers when it comes to teaching styles, involvement and caring for the students, and just over all how everyone is there for each other. It's not just a school it's a whole community and everyone cares for each other and welcomes everyone. I'm glad I got to experience such a wonderful school.

All teachers strive to push students to their greatest abilities and doesn't give up on them easily. The school includes and lot of different after school sports and clubs to participate in, evena spirit team called the Herd where you get to use your voice. Buchanan High School always look for the best thing for their students.

The teachers at Buchanan are great, and provide a strong learning experience. My only short comings are that sometimes the classes move too slow to accommodate for everyone.

If the person who posted on Sept 23 is a product of the Buchanan school system, then their comments helped my evaluation immensely. Obviously, spelling and grammar are not taught there.
