My experience at Knott County Central High School was okay. The best parts of my experience were the teachers and how they would take time to explain and break down questions if you were struggling with the content. The worst part of it however was the admistration. They would make it a thing where we were pulled out of class regularly into multiple (almost daily) prep rallies, which would cut our time in class a lot making it harder to learn material.

The teachers are very understanding and will help you in any way they can. I would like to see less focus on sports and more focus on our safety and what we can improve on.

I liked how small the high school was, not many people so you get to know everyone. Most of the teachers are super nice and will help you with anything. I enjoy going there.
