Before I moved to Richmond I was really struggling with school, but ever since I came to John Marshall my grades have gotten alot better. The teachers are amazing and I made some really awesome friends. There are tons of fun classes and i can't wait till next year. The slight downside is the lunches, I believe they could be improved. Other than that I really like this school.

We are all not the same. This school h...
