During my 4 years at George Washington high school, I have came over obstacles. I was a very quiet student so I didn't really speak up for myself and that made it kind of hard for me. My first two years were rough but I managed to keep good grades just by studying as much as I could. The last two years were the best, I was in a nursing program and got my Certified Nursing Assistant license; I was around people I could be myself around and managed to get honor roll or even straight A's my senior year.

The best part of my experience is the sports. Sports bring excitement. It brings everyone close together and feel like a family.

George Washington High School has its good and bad. Academically it is an okay school. The band and orchestra are really nice. The teachers are good. It is just mainly the students that ruin things.
