I transferred as a senior and everyone was great. The teachers really care. Some teachers take your phone, and other teachers let you keep your phone as long as you're doing your work.

The Cary High School experience is one I'll carry with me forever. I truly enjoyed my time there, and i feel it is a very god school.
