I absolutely love Narrows High School, not only with its very diverse and exciting community but with the help of the faculty and staff, getting ready for college isnt nearly as hard. The only thing i could see happening is the need of more money for in class books and better technology (computers and the such) and that would make the school 100 percent better in my book.

I love my high school. The teachers there have helped me so much with everything that I've done. The reason that I'm still willing to learn is due to the fact of they've helped me straighten my path of interest. They've taught me lessons that I believe no other school could.

I like how small the school is. I also like that the teachers are very easy to talk to and get along with. Some of the student's morals are not the best. I think that should be worked upon. Cliques are also a pretty large thing in the school. Basically, your choices are you play a sport or you don't.
