I always liked thought at one point but just read my story then you would see why my senior year changed my whole perspective on school and everyone at school. My senior year at Jefferson County High has been the toughest of my life, it affected me mentally, emotionally, and academically. This school has never been a good fit for me, not since second grade. My worst memory is crying, at the thought of having to stay at that school one more year and not graduating from this school but in the end I will be walking across that stage. Even when they try to improve things, it still doesn't feel right this school would never change anything no matter what been said. It's so underlying seeing that nobody care for the youth of this community anymore. So, as graduation approaches, I don't feel the any type of way. It's more about living the last days as a student i'll say. My diploma will be the most valuable asset I would have in my teenage years even though I thought it would never happen.

Jefferson County In Mississippi is a great school to me. It's not that much there but it's still great. The athletes do there work and make good grades. The principle is very encouraging. The teachers will help you if needed. Mostly everyone gets Alone with one another. I would like them to get more technology
