Some qualities that I like about my school is that its very easy to talk with the teachers they are very, connected with the students. There is always at least one teacher that you can trust to talk about personal life with. One part that I don't like as much is that since its a very small school there aren't too many electives to choose from. Something that I would like to change about the school are the athletics , I would love to bring more money to the athletic side of the school.

This High School it's the best for me and for other,because it has everything what you need and what you want.For example,if you want to join a club or sport they help you with everything ,also give a lot feedback about college application and everything ,they really encourage you to become more successible. That teacher help you if you have a problem with homework or even with emotional problem you could contact them and they there to help you anytime you need them.
