I have went to Seneca High School for the last three years and I am now in my last year there. They have not made many improvements in the last three years even though there are complaints about many things. The staff do not really show that they care in the way they need to in my opinion. There are some very good teachers there like, Mrs.Cook and Mrs.Halliwell. The same ten students get picked for everything because their parents work there or their parents have great influence over the school.

Offering over 15 Advanced Placement courses, Seneca provides ample opportunities for its students to succeed academically. Additionally, despite the school's unpredictable culture and spirit, Seneca offers many different athletic programs with devoted coaches and student-athletes. Overall, Seneca High School provides students with a relatively positive and memorable experience for their high school years, despite its common criticisms.

It was not very diverse or with the times and they care mainly about sports and not the arts or education, which is sad because the sports suck.
