The best part of my experience at my high school is the community. Whether it be the football games or school dances, school events are always a fun place to be with friends. These isn't something that has stood out to me that has been especially "bad". One thing I would like to see change in is a bit more safety. School fights are often a big problem at our school and I think there need to be more hall monitors during passing periods to help prevent that.

The building for East Campus was fantastic. I hope in the future that they combine the freshmen center with east campus. It would be nice to have all grades in the same building so freshmen could meet more upperclassmen sooner. Overall, I had a good experience at Lockport. I did not have a good relationship with all teachers, but I did feel like the academics were appropriate and lined up with my expectations for the courses.
