My high school experience was a good experience. I already knew what I wanted to do for college but they didn't explain how to prepare or even apply for college. I would really like this aspect to become more present in juniors and seniors. I would like to see the adulting and future career classes would be more present in schools that are in small towns. Tax classes would be more beneficial for students to learn for the real world. The worst part in my experience was that sports was a top priority in school. I was apart of the music and art program and it felt totally ignored from alumni and the administration.
