My experience at Hope High School is so far something I haven't taken the time to appreciate because of being worried about finishing work and pondering about the future. The pandemic caused my family to have a housing crisis. I had trouble with school during that time but still wanted yo achieve and be apart if the school. In my senior year I wanted to make up for what I haven't done and try something before I can't anymore. I am hopeful that this would all be worth it and my work could pay off.

Things that I like about Hope High school is that no matter what situation you are in you can always go to someone, a teacher, counselor, or advisor for anything. If you want to get involved with anything a club or sport there's many options. The principle makes sure that students are being heard and feel safe in the school.

What I like best about Hope is that the teacher's really push us to be our best. I love the relationships I have built with my team mates and the only things that I would like to see change is a better clean and safe environment
