I liked my school. The teachers would talk one on one with you and wanted you to achieve your best. If you put in the effort, so did they.

The teachers at my school are very good at teaching us things in a way that incorporate real world examples, but I feel that some of them do not care to much about the students education. Grades don't get put in till quite a while after they are due and sometimes not at all which can get a bit frustrating when students have to remind there teacher about their missing grade.
