So far my experience at tech is good. It's worth the experience coming from a school with no diversity, a smaller school and less exposure to other types of academics. The best part of my experience was the learning is better, it's something new from what I was use to and the teachers are very helpful. The worst part of my experiences the rules. I don't have much to say about changes however, I wish we were able to have a little bit more freedom.

One thing I enjoyed about going to Bradley Tech are the teachers. The teachers always encourage me to do better. One thing I would change about this high school would be our education system. We aren't prepared for college at all.

I am currently in my senior year at Tech and I think it is a great school. They offer a lot of different classes and programs to students that can lead to a better future.
