My experience in high school was a rollercoaster of negative and positives of bullying and college prep

James Monroe High school is a really good high school to attend. During the last four years I have learned so much at JMHS and I have met so many great people. One thing that I like the most about JMHS is that the teacher make you feel like family and are wheeling to go out of there way to help you out. I would like to see the food at lunch change. I know there are certain guide lines they have to follow but some days we have good lunches than other days not so good.

I like the positive and family like atmosphere that the school offers. I also like that the concealers are involved and work hard to help students in any way they can. I think they can improve building maintenance. Overall I have enjoyed my years at James Monroe High School and in Monroe County.
