The things I like about Canton High School are the teachers mostly. They are very passionate about helping you with anything and are always there for you. They are always there to encourage and push you to do better for you to reach your goals. The students you surround yourself around also supports you in every decision you decide to make because they want you to succeed in life as much as you want them to.
