In Rocky Mount High I was surrounded by very good teachers who would work with me and help me learn a little better, while the worst thing I can think of is the lunch food most of the time being disgusting, being unpalatable.

My experience at Rocky Mount High has been a journey. The teachers are caring and are there to help students, and we have various sports to choose from. However, I wouldn't say its safety and academics is the best. Theres not much diversity and culture as well.

Rocky Mount Highschool has very fun educating experiences with yet very important and readiness for the future and world experience.The best part is meeting and getting to know new people especially with diversity you can learn different cultures as well. There are really no worst parts in my experience so far because the only thing you would need to do is stay focused,learn and prioritize your time.

Bad students block the stairs for other students. If I had the money, my kids would be attending a priv...
