I absolutely loved my experience through high school at Grand Rapids . My previous school did not have as many options of classes and school culture compared to Grand Rapids High School . Teachers are amazing, they are probably the best part of school. The worst part is the diversity, coming from a school with high diversity it sucked to not be in a school without diversity

Grand Rapids high school has a wider selection of classes than I had gotten at my previous school. Majority of the teachers here are passionate about the students and the curriculum they're teaching, which makes learning from them a lot more interesting. Due to budget cuts we are currently losing many amazing teachers, making it a little less exciting to look at future years here.

In my experience at Grand Rapids High School I have made new friends and met new teachers which is exciting. At first, as a freshman things were scary at first I, was lost in the building so one of the upperclassmen pointed the direction I needed to go which I thought was nice of them. I have excel at high school earning a 3.922 Grade Point Average showing that my hard work is paying off in the end to be thinking about.
