As a cedar hill student i would like to see the teachers care more, and yes teachers deserve respect but students also deserve that chance to be treated fairly.

For me personally I would like to see a more advanced academic program because at its current state it's not really doing that well.

Cedar Hill is a diverse place, with its own set of pros and cons. As a student at Cedar Hill, I find it difficult to come across teachers who are enthusiastic about teaching and preparing students for the next chapter of their lives. There are many classes where students are left to their own devices, without any productive work to do. Additionally, there aren't enough challenging classes that can help everyone achieve success.
