I'm giving Salisbury high school a three out of five because the teachers are not that bad but I wish they would go more into depth with teaching their kids for example making sure that they understand it and making sure that they have help if it's needed in case nobody else at home food at two out of five because a lot of the time I'll get the academics and the sports and activities a five out of five as there is multiple options of the classes that could be helpful for your future careers while there's multiple spots for you to play that range from swimming to golf and give us people opportunities to be able to do things they want to all getting a good education as well as a coach that lead me to the career that you want to do while supporting you giving help Sign up for classes for free while being a student at Salisbury high school

The school wasn't too bad, but it wasn't great either. There were rarely any fights or instances where we had to go on lockdown.
