Within my experience in Rauner College Prep in my three, about to be four, years here I've had made some good memories. Most of my teachers had taught me well and also are kind hearted. The lesson that they have taught will impact me in a good way in my academic future. Although in most of the years, that I have been in, at least one teacher leaves Rauner mid through and it had effected my education in a negative way. But overall my experience with Rauner isn't as bad as I thought it would be.

My experience at Rauner has overall been pleasant. As a senior about to , it brings very bitter sweet emotions. I am proud to say that Rauner has definitely set me up for success as I will be attending UIC fall 2024 prepared with a full ride scholarship which wouldn't be possible without all the resources and help from teachers at Rauner.
