Walden Grove high school is a fairly average school in Sahuarita Arizona. I have been lucky enough to get its best teachers while taking only AP and PCC courses, but many of the on-level teachers aren't very good at their jobs. There are some activities that are almost unique to Walden Grove like the Lip Dub that engages all of the students in a fun gathering. Vandalism is rare, though some people are caught smoking in the restrooms at times.

This school, while it has many gems in students and certain programs, it suffers from low funding and only about half of the teachers know what they are doing.

During my second year at Walden, I became very ill, and wasn't able to continue attending. The school provided me with a homeschool option, and I was able to return the next year because of their help and support. The teachers and administration are enthusiastic, helpful, and they're good at what th...
