Fulton High School has a massive clique and bullying culture. The teachers are often no help, informing victims that they cannot be helped if they have no other evidence than their own word. Certain teachers are lacking in the departments of empathy and overall teaching ability, while others have both and excel at their job.

I enjoyed my experience at Fulton High School to the fullest. The greatest thing about this school is how close you become with your classmates. Having a class of only 85 students, it was easy to get to know everyone individually. This school also has the perk of teachers being genuinely motivated to see you succeed. With having such a small class, the teachers at Fulton High School are able to help every student and get to know you on a personal level. This school was something I will always hold dear to me.

I liked that Fulton High School encouraged all students to be involved in not only sports, but other activities. Also, it awarded well rounded students for their hard work and participation.
