We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

During my three years at Nyssa High School I have had both amazing and challenging experiences. One highlight of my 3 years is I have been able to play three sports a year for free. I've gained so many new friends and my coaches have been amazing. Another great aspect is the teachers. So many of my teachers care about me and about my grades. They know I'm a hard worker so they give me the opportunity to work for what I desire. A challenging part of Nyssa has been some of my classes. Last year I took 3 college classes that were very difficult. However I was able to keep my 4.0 grade average and enjoy the classes. Overall I've had a great experience at Nyssa High school.

I have been in sports activities throughout my high school years, behind the yearbook. I have done culinary for 4 years. In school I learn something new every day. I try enjoy every day I can before graduation. Making memories with the new friends and hoping to see them all grown up.

So weird, it's obvious this school has a set way of doing things. The majority of the school is white conservative kids who are just flat out disrespectful. Class starts at 9:05 and when I get there at around 9:00 everyone's already in class it's so odd. Teachers are all white with some hispanics. N...
