In my first full year at Rockville high school, I found my interest and love for music and biology that I never knew was present. Going to Rockville HS allowed to find myself and I am always able to be honest and open with my peers and staff at the school.

I like Rockville because it has a good community of friendly and motivating people. However, there have been some issues with administration and teachers at this school. There have been many teachers that have left in the middle of the year, have been put on administrative leave, or do not return the following year.

My child, who transferred into the community in 8th grade (at the feeder middle school) then attended RHS in 9th grade had an extremely difficult transition to fit in socially. She was also cons...
