I graduated from Jena High School last year, and I have very fond memories of the school still. There were some of the most caring and passionate teachers at that school.
8/20/2023
It was good for what it was. The staff really wanted to support you graduating, which was great, but I don't feel like I was adequately prepared to seek out further education. I especially struggled in math after high school. I also feel like they could have more diverse classes and clubs to allow students to better explore their interests.
8/20/2022
Pros 1. We don't have uniforms. 2. The teachers who have been there a long time are really good. 3. There are many vocational/college readiness classes so students are prepared for the workforce or university. Cons 1. Some locks on the bathroom stalls don't work, and they rarely have sufficient paper towels and toilet paper. 2. Our teachers keep switching grades/schools. 3. Many clubs meet on the same day at the same time, so you have to choose which meeting to go to.
