Howard High school is a very great school. It probably is #1 in Macon. There are a variety of clubs to join. There is a opportunity for every student. The administration is also nice.The teachers are very helpful. The school feels safe. The athletic department is #1 in Macon.

The worst part has been everyone getting punished for one person's mistakes. There should be more freedom and trust in students. Also, not all teachers actually teach—they just hand out work. The best part is when teachers truly care and take time to help us learn. What I'd Change: * Stop group punishments * Give students more freedom * Make sure teachers actually teach

3.0 Junior

The best parts about Howard High School is the friendships I got out of it. The worst part is the lack of education in certain classes.
