We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Best parts were clubs and sports. Worse parts were diversity and how small it was. I would like to see them have more parents be involved.

In the school I would love to see change within clubs, such as adding more options in clubs and even adding more NHS clubs and, AP classes

The worst parts of school were how many teachers have given up and do not care about what they're teaching anymore but the best part of school are the teachers who genuinely do care about what they're teaching and the students they are teaching as well and want to help as much as possible by giving the best advice and working hard to encourage students
