Sherman High School isn't the best. The only positive things about it, are that it is small, so you know everyone and it is easy to get around since it is smaller. However, there are not many classes offered, there are no AP classes and no foreign language classes. I have to take my Spanish lessons online through Duolingo, I am past my 400 day mark. Most students are very "opinionated" and bigoted. It is not a very popular area, and I can see why.

Sherman High School is a typically average school. My experience over the three years I have attended could have been better.

I hope to have a better educational experience as I go into college.
