I liked the way that most teachers actually care about the well-being of their students. Some really great examples of this are Senora Katherine Youngman, Karleen Hansen, Stacy Hansen, Eric Oja, Shannon O'Rourke-Hudson, and Kim Jones. I think that the facilities could be better maintained, I think that the food is sub-par, I believe that student academia could be treated more seriously.

My favorite part of Pendleton High School is the student involvement in leadership and the efforts they take to make school enjoyable. My worst experience was the day a kid threatened to shoot up the school because it was rainbow day. I would like to see more education on different cultures to prevent this kind of distress.

My experience at Pendleton High school has been amazing. I have not gone through anything bad here. The teachers here care a lot about the students. There are many activities you could join here where you could make many new friends. I will say not all kids will be friendly but most of them will.
