The best parts have been the teachers I get every once in a while that go above and beyond for their students. The teachers that really love their students and want to see and help them succeed. The worst parts have been the teachers that have unfortunately lost their passion for teaching and helping the next generation.

There are some amazing people and amazing teachers, that being said there are also some terrible people and bad teachers. There are so many opportunities through Ray-Pec. They do a good job at offering something to everyone. There are so many caring people and it genuinely feels like a place of belonging.

At Ray-Pec High School, every teacher I encountered was committed to my success. As a student, I knew that my education was highly valued, and everyone worked to help me achieve my goals. Not only that, but there was also a shared school spirit. Though the school was large, our school spirit united us and created a felling of community. There were also a ton of opportunities to get involved, whether that be in sports, academic clubs, or recreational clubs.

Teacher’s will work with your student if you ask for help and stay on top of the grading systems used. Make sure to read the emails the district sends out, they are key to staying caught up on what is happening in the district.
