One thing I found that I really loved during my years at Carbondale was the kindness and ability the teachers had to make learning actually fun. However with this in mind the teachers did have problems with not challenging the students enough and letting them get off easy with cheating or copying someone.

Describing my experience in Carbondale Area Junior Senior High School as a senior would be expressed as well directed. My learning disability makes it hard do simple tasks in life but the teachers really take the time to help their students. They care and put time and effort into guiding students education.
