Oneonta High School has opened many opportunities for me. I have been able to take many challenging college classes that help build structure for college. Playing on many sports teams for Oneonta High School has also helped me become physically and mentally stronger.

The best part would be the community. Since it is a pretty small school, everyone knows each other, so the students and teachers are very close and many eat lunch together. The teachers are all very open and willing to help and are always there for us. The worst part would be the temperature of the school. The school feels like a freezer all year long, and there is air conditioning on even in the winter. I would like to have more heating during the winter so that we do not have to wear our winter coats inside.

Teachers are great for the most part. Small enough to get to know people well, big enough that everyone is not in everyone's business. Safe school and students get along pretty well.
