When I was a freshman I was told to keep my held high and I graduate in 4 years. Due to me coming to high school they were very supportive. Maplewood may seem bad to others but is an exceptional school in my point of view . Maplewood is a uplifting and very strong minded in its own creative way. Words that describe Maplewood is, passionate, superior, loving, remarkable, and joyful throughout my time of been there.

I go here and I'm going to graduate 2019, the teachers barely teach.. if you want to learn sometimes you have to learn things on your own which has always been fine with me. They have great scholar programs and a great college zone for seniors getting ready for college. The kids though are terrible they don't want to learn and make all of the teachers quit.
