The experience at Saranac high school is definitely better than other schools around us. I feel the teachers genuinely care about their students and want what's best for their students.

the highschool is much safer than the middle school, but still iffy. drugs, racism, and just discrimination in general is a very often occurrence. the diversity is absolutely terrible. finding friends is nearly impossible if you're not a teenage boy who's a stoner or a judgy blonde girl who plays soccer. I don't like this school

It is a great small school where you are known by everyone. You don't get lost in the shuffle of things.
