on my first day of coming to James Hubert Blake high school I was so sad I didn't know nobody. I felt lonely. after few months I got used to it I found friends. The teachers here at Blake are very nice and helpful.

I recently just enrolled in Blake high school this past school year. overall I'd say my experience at Blake has been great so far, I've made amazing friends and absolutely adore my teachers. I was really involved in extracurriculars in my previous school in Ethiopia but have not really found anything that quips my interest(this could be because I have not searched hard enough) at Blake. I haven't done much this past year other than focus on my education. but I so hope that I'll be able to do a lot more during my last year at Blake.

My experience at blake was pretty nice, the school itself needs some work done and has roaches. I wish we had more school-spirited events as I am involved in the marching band but that's something by a class by class basis.

Blake is a great school if you like art like dance and stuff. While i at blake i took tap class and it was wonderful to learn the school has many classes to choose form but one downfall is that they have bad kids and it can be distracting in class and they always have fights in school but overall it...
