I always loved the way teachers make sure you are prepared for all life challenges, they make sure to prepare you for life after high school and make it seem not so difficult. One things i think we should improve of is how to handle kids who aren't use to being in school, since the pandemic we fell behind and kids my age are struggling to finish. HSA has been a second home and i'd like to say they have been like family.
