Going to Sherrard has been an alright journey to say the least. The students here are very cliquey but are still somewhat nice, and most of the teachers are willing to help when needed

I enjoyed my time at Sherrard, I enjoyed getting to form such close connections with my teachers and students in a school of such a small size. Because of this small size, however, I did feel limited in my opportunities and resources at Sherrard and I feel like I didn't learn as much as I should've due to some of the teachers there.
