I have only been at buffalo high school for a short amount of time a few months at best but in that time i have learned quite a bit about them, they are a close knit community they tend to look out for there students and the school spirit is there . Like every school it has its flaws favoritism is apparent you can see it sometimes in smaller ways than other for many is not a great thing unless obviously you are at the other end of the line , where you are the liked one. This school is unlike any iv been to and one thing iv noticed is they take a lot of pride in there seniors and envolving the community in school activitys , inviting them to games , parades , pep rallys ect. Overall buffalo is a good school with its flaws.
