My overall experience with Watson Chapel since I've came back is awesome and I love learning here. The teachers are very experimental and the students are friendly. The sports teams are very encouraging and I love going to the games.

As a new senior at Watson Chapel I can say that the school is not the best but there are parts of it that stand out beyond any other school. The parents show up for their children! they are very supportive.

The best parts of my experience at watson chapel is being surrounded by so many people that have been through the same things as me. The worst part is how congested the school is at times, and the amount of unnecessary rules. I feel as if administrators care more about phones, hoodies, and clothes than they do our education and there has to be a balance.
