A major factor that affects my experience in SVAH is how often they fire and hire teachers. As a senior I have gone to this school for 4 years, every year a hand full of the teachers I had would be fired and replaced with new ones. The new ones do not last either making it hard to build relationships with teachers.

My name is Jocelyn I am a upcoming junior. My overall experience in SVAH is really good it gave me grate opportunities to succeed and meet new people. For example, it have clubs like SRLA that trains you to run a whole marathon. In which you meet some amazing people and get to challenge yourself. They also after a variety of Ap classes and the support need for these challenging classes.

This school is full of kids cursing, using their phones during class time for personal use, talking and laughing during lectures, and talking back to teachers as though they are clueless to the notion of an authority figure or respect for the teacher. The principal doesn't enforce the rules or regul...
