The best part of my experience was the amazing teachers. The teachers were very uplifting and supportive towards every student. The assemblies were also amazing and very entertaining. One thing I am happy that has changed is the sports programs. There are much better coaches coaching some of the programs such as volleyball. Pocatello has took action when something isn't working and that's what I like.
