Some of the best parts I would say are when we celebrate everyone achievements academically and athletically. I wouldn't say there are any bad parts of my experience.

Port Allen High School is such a great school. I remember that I used to move a lot and I went to several different schools. But when I arrived to Port Allen High not only I found the school I was looking fo, but I found a home and a family. Port Allen High from its staff members to its students is a school that represents unity and solidarity. And last but not least I want to give a special shout out to our principal James Jackson for holding the entire school accountable each day and for always making time to hear the students out, and for making everybody feel that they matter.

Port Allen high school is just any other school. However despite its ups and downs the school has always encouraged the students to strive to be a better you. Every school needs change. This school isn't perfect but its just right for me.
