Somersworth is a great school because of the connections that you can make with the teachers that work there since the student population is so small. I do wish that the school offered more AP's, I feel that its a little bit harder to get noticed at somersworth than it would be if I went to a school like Dover high or STA since we're so much smaller.

The Career Technical classes were great but I feel the guidance department could do much better with providing the students with scholarship opportunities.

The high school was good and I learned a lot of stuff. I'm happy that they offered CTC courses to get students interested in future career options. Teachers are amazing and students are friendly. Wish the school was bigger and a little more updated.

As a student of the freshman class, I feel like the teachers are more confusing than genuinely helpful and the student community (especially class of 2022) is...bad. Real bad. Also quarter-long classes should not be a thing whatsoever. All classes should be semester or year long instead. The student...
