My best experience has been with the school soccer programs. In the last five years it's improved a lot and has actually succeeded while slowly gaining funding

It has been a great experience, I'm a junior and I have learned a lot. The teachers are really nice and they help you whenever you need them. This school has a lot of diversity, there is a lot of Hispanics, Asians, and Africans, there is no racism in the school.

overall my time at Jefferson high school made me college-ready and taught me a lot of things i will need in college and also further in my career in Architecture. At Jefferson high school i played baseball for two years and also bowling for all four years. I loved the bowling program, but the baseball program needs work. The teachers at Jefferson are excellent and you learn a lot from them and the experiences that they pass on down to us. I'm glad to be involved with Jefferson and the community. i can call Jefferson my second home.
