I have really enjoyed my time at Carolina Forest High School and will be sad to leave. I have enjoyed my AP classes and believe the teachers are doing a good job teaching. The worst part of my experience is the increased threats my past two years of schooling and some teachers who are horrible at their job. I would like to see more clubs open up.

I loved this school. It is truly an experience that has been memorable. The faculty and teachers are extremely helpful and gave me the high school experience I would never forget.

My daughter has enjoyed being apart of CFHS. She has been able to do AP classes and honor classes that have challenged her in a rewarding way. These classes help get students ready for college level work, so even on her first day of school she has gotten homework or test prep in these classes. She a...
