Johnson High school is a great school for education but sometimes you would meet teachers that do not teach and you would have to teach yourself the information for example this year I had a algebra ll class and the teacher would not teach so I had to teach all the information the whole year and let me tell you the class was an honors class so that means that class is weighted more on your GPA.

Most teachers are friendly and will put effort in making relationships with students. Academics are fine, and there are plenty of opportunities for sports extracurriculars. I had a hard time connecting with students personally, but I find that other students connected well with others within this school.

My experience at JHS was the most valuable part of my life so far. I had so many chances to get involved with sports, clubs, and academics and with so many opportunities unique to the student life of a Knight you can't compare it to anything else. The staff here went above and beyond to prepare me f...
