Some parts of attending my high school are great but others are severely lacking. The school only funds the football team and only cares about them regardless of how good other teams do. I also feel how different people are treated based on who their parents are, and what kind of family they grew up in. However there are some truly outstanding teachers that make it worth it.

The teachers worked well to connect with students and help them understand anything they had trouble with. Resources were available to upcoming graduates on help with applying for college. There could be more of a variety of groups and clubs, and those activities could be more well-regulated.

My high school focused more on fire works for the football team then giving kids the right education. They did have some good teachers like Mrs.White who really wanted the best for her students but then there were some teachers who were really biased. Teachers would allow some students to get away with some stuff like bullying but if the other students said something back to the bully the bully would get away with it but the victim would get in trouble just be cause of who they were. Much could be changed about this school and the way that they go about thing.
