What I liked about Homer was the small town atmosphere. Getting one-on-one help from teachers really aided me into becoming the best student I could be. Also, the friendships formed in a small school is great. Everybody knows everybody and there is not one unfamiliar face in the hallways. What I would like to see change is the overall school spirit and more preparedness for college.

There isn't a huge involvement of students in sports and our teams never seem to do well expect for girls basketball. Depending on the sport we can have an okay student section but there is hardly any school spirit which may be due to the lack of school spirit by school authorities.
