The school needs to start bringing more activities for students and have more people involved in clubs

In my four year experience at thornwood I've witnessed a lot, from bad to the good, but day by day thornwood is becoming a better place for students, teachers, and others.

My experience at Thornwood was both good and bad, but I don't think I'll have another experience like the one I had at Thornwood. Personally, my experience was actually quite fun; from the hallway parades to me conversing with my friends during class, I've created some beautiful and memorable memories and friendships over the three years I've been there. Some of the best parts I recall is the people I've be-friended, the laughs we shared together, the pictures we took. All of it was memorable in its own way. The worst part is how often or common we had issues that it made a few news headlines. Something I would like to see change was the bus system and the lateness.

Alexandria Hay needs to find a job elsewhere. That lady is something else. She's very one sided. If something is going on bring all students together instead of taking one side of the story. Working in a high school is definitely NOT for her.
