Seneca is the reason I'm graduating as a junior because the school is overall just people fighting and skipping or wanting overall drama.The teachers are helpful though and I have came closer to some than others. The worst thing about Seneca is the weed, it has gotten so bad to the point metal detection has entered the school and its the only thing keeping the problem at bay.
