Nevada High School was okay to go too. There are a lot of things about Nevada that I would change. Teachers have their favorites. The other students don't get paid attention too much. The athletics in Nevada aren't very good or fun at all. When it comes to college readiness , were kinda ready but not where we should be.

I like that some of the teachers will help you one on one and that everyone knows each other. We don't have much trouble that goes on and don't have to worry about having security or anything and we have very few fights in school.

I don't eat in the lunch room, but when i was we basically had the same food everything other week. Sometimes they also give us expired foods, like sour cream, and milk, etc. Some of the food are delicious. For example, the baked potatoes are always good but its no good without any good sour cream. I like how there's to lines to chose from, but paying 3 dollars for one little chicken wrap is a little crazy.
