I like Somerville because its a town where everyone knows everyone we're all like one big happy Yegua family but broke into different family's like the Football and Cheerleader family all of us are ready to win each game sometimes we lose the game but we win the games as much as we can the Somerville Yeguas are 5-4 overall and I think we are 4th in district. The cheerleaders are all like sisters we like to keep each other safe especially when the Football boys are coming towards us trying to get the ball. What I don't like about the school is temperature of the school its always so cold like Antarctica. No I won't like to see a change at the school I like it the way it is nice and small where everyone knows everyone.

I loved that I was comfortable at the school because it was smaller than usual but however I do believe that a lot of things there could be done more professional there.

The school administration are somewhat involved. The dress code is not very strict just as long as we follow certain rules.I have some classmates that do no attend school very often. My friends and I attend almost every day, and only miss when we have a sporting event. Everyone is different though, some care about school and some do not.
