The best parts of my high school experience at Jefferson high school was the art classes. The worst part was the other students being hateful and the teachers not doing much to give them consequences.

The things I like about Jefferson High School Is that it is a very good school where teachers pay attention to their students and have a passion to be able to teach them and take there own time to be able to teach them other things that they need to know about their life after High School. The things that I would like to see a change the roof of the school buildings and also the leaking of the roofs, the bathrooms and other things like the kitchen and water fountains.

I think my child and the others in her graduating class were given the highest of personal values and the best attention from the teachers and staff that I could hope for. The community of volunteers was also very supportive.
