The best part of my high that I been through over these past four years is probably the fine arts department as I have been in concert band symphonic band marching band and jazz band and I have went through drawing and painting 1 applied design and now about to go through pottery as the people there are so open and welcoming to everyone

It's been an incredible journey the past four years and I couldn't have made it without the support of some of the most amazing teachers and administrators. One of the best moments has been being apart of the REACH SCHOLAR PROGRAM. The worst part of my experience is that it's all coming to an end sooner than I want it too.

I think the school in general could be better because it has some flaws but overall I enjoyed my time there but I'm glad to have graduated also. The students at the school aren't the best but it also depends on who you hang around. The school has some issues and could be fixed but hasn't yet, hopefully they'll make a change in the future.
