I would say the best part of Jefferson is majority of the teachers. Most of them seem to really care about you and make your experience the best it can be. They seem less as mean strict teachers and more down to earth and understanding of their students. Personally, I would say the worst part is the math department. I feel that our math department was not helpful and other students would say the same.

It's an okay school. Small classes of 130 kids per graduating class. But it's also political. You gotta know people to be able to be popular or liked by coaches
