The best part of my experience was making new friends and being able to accomplish challenges that I set for myself. Calhoun helps you become an outstanding student and shows you that you should be a leader not a follower. This school also taught me that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.

The small class size gave students the advantage of having better one on one learning with teachers. However, I would like to see more funding put into Calhoun and more extra curricular activities for students. There aren't many options for students outside of the band, sports, and JROTC.
