My overall experience at Jamestown High School was enjoyable. Throughout my four years there was definitely some scandals and issues that did arise. Even with the issues, I feel that my entire class connected fairly well and we all enjoyed our time.

I really liked my old high school. It had good teachers who were helpful and had teaching styles that I liked. It had many extracurricular activities available for students to participate in and enjoy. There were very few after school activities that you could get involved in though besides sports. There were a few clubs, but they didn't really advertise so most didn't know that they existed.

I like that they offer a wide variety of classes and activities. There are clubs, sports, and classes that can appeal to any student. What I would like to changed is the cleanliness of the school, quality of school lunch, and access to better technology.
