The school has been a great place in my memory since I was first able to go to school. The learning has been interesting and intuitive for students for all types. The district keeps the school safe and clean especially things like bathrooms and cafeterias which a lot of people use.

My experience at Jefferson County High School has been boring and average. For my entire four years there has been a limited number of activities to join that is the main factor I would like to see change. Many teachers employed at the school would claim that they are starting a club and when we pay the fee that is required to join nothing happens. They just take the students money and the students never here nothing about the clubs again. My favorite part about Jefferson County High School is the amount of students that go there. The percentage is not small but it is not to big to make me feel crowded.

I have been the in Jefferson County School District for almost all of my life. School used to be better than what it is now. Teachers were in every testing subject area, there was better student behavior, and learning was actually taken place. Now, there are barley any teachers, students' behavior are worse, I really do not know anything. Being a senior and soon transferring to college, the college preparation is very poor.
