Excellent autism support teacher. She works with the students according to their abilities. As well, she aids students with getting the most beneficial curriculum possible. It is difficult to communicate with teachers due to lack of 1:1. Not enough teachers.

My experience at Sanderson high school within the past year has been pretty good. Although just like other school there are a few adjustments that could be made but overall great teachers that actually want to see you succeed.

Sanderson high school is excellent. It has around the same opportunity as any other high school in the area. Lots of college level courses and clubs. The great thing is that since it is a little smaller there seems to be more leadership positions or opportunities for everyone. Not the nicest facilities but good enough, great community. The academy of finance is also excellent and can't be found anywhere else.
