So far at Roger's High School it's been an incredible support to me and my family, I do not know what I would do if It weren't for them and their help while applying to college

I think the best parts about Roger's is the teachers commitment to their students. However the worst part by far is the food you can tell it is school food. And the portions aren't big enough for an adult which most of us are. I think in order for better learning we would need a more full and more healthy lunch!

Our school is in dire need of support from the community. We live in a tourist town where the tourists are prioritised over us a million times over. It is upsetting and frustrating. The teachers I have had at this school are the only thing that has saved my experience here - the staff genuinely cares and wants you to succeed and do well, the towns local govt. doesn't care just as much.
