My best part of my high school experience is being in the PLTW pathway and the doors it has opened for me like getting a job as a PCT student at a hospital. My worsy experience at my school is the students that choice not to be kind to each other. The changes I would like to see is more doors open for students in different pathways and getting better jobs that way while getting learning experience before deciding on what you want to do in life.

Like any other school system, Crittenden County definitely has its flaws, but I would not have chosen any other school to graduate from. It is a very small school that is very passionate about sports and relationships. The teachers care about students and their success, clubs and sports are heavily supported, and students always have a place to go when they don't know what to do.
