Overall my experience so far at Portage High School has been a pretty positive one. My teachers always show that they are confident in me, and Portage has shaped me into a well-behaved student.

My favorite experience at Portage High School would have to be when we had our pep rally for this year. As a senior, it was important to me that we won the spirit stick. Seniors did win it and it made my day better. I will recount though that some of the convocations they hold tend to take up a lot of time. Additionally, not many students are able to connect the lessons from the assembly and still end up engaging in bad behaviors.

Some of the teachers are okay, but others are part of the problem when it comes to not doing anything about discrimination or bullying, instead igno...

Horrible, I was severely bullied for being underweight due to my stomach disease and all of the councilors put it off like it was no big deal and I should just "love myself no matter what they say" instead of putting forth the effort to stop the bullying in the first place. Now, when it comes to act...
