My experience at Junction High School was very good since it's such a small town it's easy to be involved in a lot of clubs and extracurriculars. However we didn't have much stability when it came to teachers or faculty since many of them seemed to quit or be "let go" often.

Junction is what you would imagine the small town experience to be like. On Friday nights everyone is at the football game, and if it is a home game you can bet that the entire town will be there to cheer the team on. Over my years at JISD I must say my favorite memories were the ones that I have made at JHS. Everyone always says that they can't wait to go to college, and I too have said it. I just know that when the time does come I will not want to leave a place where I have made my life long friends, and a place that has shaped me into the person that I am today. I would not trade any of my moments good or bad to of gone to school anywhere else.
