The best part is that I can join and make club that I want to be in. The worst part is the experiment I had with other students.

I have been at Montevallo since my freshman year of high school and I am now a senior. My experience at Montevallo has been pretty good so far. The teachers at the school are nice and are willing to help me whenever I need it. Montevallo is a small community so that makes the school experience better and it also makes the community closer. Although I haven't had many bad experiences, I would make the lunch menu better, I would change the phone policy ,and I would most likely make the school day shorter.
