What I liked about Georgetown high school was the fact that all the teachers knew your name and were willing to work one on one with you if you needed the help. The teachers really care about the success of their students. Also the Georgetown students are all very welcoming. This high school is such a small school and that makes it very easy to get to know everyone. The guidance counselors make it easy to fill out college forms and help you make educated decisions. They make the college process a lot less scary. This school gives students great opportunities to grow and to learn different opinions. It also teaches you how to respect opinions other than yours.
