Chicopee High School has great staff that is dedicated to bettering their students' education. I could tell that my teachers were focused on my success and watching me grow. There is no tolerance for personal electronic devices in the class in order to ensure full focus and attention. On the other hand, the students that misbehave could be shown more discipline and restriction.

My senior class has always been full of leaders and made the best out of every one of our years in high school. Our sports are competitive and the academics have a wide range of different courses.

I liked a good majority of my teachers, who made learning as well as the classroom environment fun. During my years of 9th & 10th grades we had school pride weeks to encourage the students to raise funds for our local soup kitchen. The diversity in students is great, but their levels of manners and respect totter a lot.

I went to this school and it doesn't prepare students well enough for college preparatory exams. I can recall not knowing one student in my graduating class scoring over a 1300 on the SATs, which is below the average of the college I attended. I had to work a lot harder freshmen year to catch up to...
