My high school experience was great. I made friendships that I still have to this day, the connections I made with my teachers were valuable, and everything I learned prepared me for college and the outside world.

As a former student at South Elgin High School my 3 years have been exciting and extremely funny with a lot of diversity know multiple people with different cultures and different backgrounds and lifestyles. It is interesting to know they are living a different lifestyle and I can add some to mine. Besides diversity the academics and activities are very interactive the education does go at a good pace too.

As a student, I loved my time at the school but looking back the school as a whole was not very good. The teachers ranged from great to downright awful, and not helpful. In the 4 years I was there the way the deans enforced rules was much more strict, with bathrooms being locked and kids needing to be let in by a dean with keys like it was a prison.
