Eli Whitney Technical High School is the school that want you to succeed. No phones in class rooms really make the outstanding difference. Its not the school that wants us to exceed its the staff. The staff that is constantly pushing us to do better and be better. The teachers that teach my classmates and me difficult subjects in a ninety day period. Being at Eli Whitney is a challenge because we aren't in a classroom for one-hundred and eighty days we are split between our trades and academic. Even though it is a challenge i know that my school is and will continue to prepare me for the work force and any thing college can throw at me.

It taught me a lot about my trade and helped me master my craft but not much else was good about my time spent there the food was not good the culinary students were not allowed to eat what they made and the academics do not prepare you for the rigors of college life and classes like they advertise

My experience was pretty good. Not a too bad school system or staff. The students here are pretty nonchalant many just would like to move on with life after the school. Many kids here are very ambitious.
