At deep run, I have met a lot of new people who I will be friends with for the rest of my life. I feel like I learned a lot and I am prepared for college.

I believe the best part of my experience is the connection that students have with teachers and counseling and how there is never a lack of an adult available to help you with whatever you need either academically or emotionally. I think that there is a lot of pressure to be in high-rigor courses and a negative stigma by peers around taking honors and college prep when there is an AP option available, regardless of your confidence level in the subject.

I am extremely lucky to be able to be zoned to this school. They have an excellent variety of AP and Dual Enrollment classes. They are very competitive here though.

I moved to my current home specifically for my kids to attend Deep Run HS. Unfortutenly there was a change in leadership a couple of years ago and the main focus has changed from teaching subject matter to indoctrination of leaderships political beliefs. This is not the job or purpose of a publicly...
