I like the amount of college classes I was able to take while still in High School, I also had very helpful teachers and adults.

I love the teachers here at Spencer high school. They have never done anything but help me and support me through my time here. They have always been super supportive of me.

Spencer High School is not the best school around. There is hardly any diversity to be seen here, the food doesn't taste the best, and the school usually receives a threat of violence every few months (but we do have an officer in the building, though). The cliques are also bad and often go after each other, which can be annoying. Other than that, I would say that the classes in general are great and prepare you for higher education/the real world. There are plenty of electives to choose from in different categories, and the teachers are fairly good at helping you. There are also sports teams and if you aren't into that, there's theater, robotics, knitting, and debate club. I've also met many different types of individuals that go here - some wonderful, others nasty. I don't hate Spencer, but I wouldn't mind if I went to another school either.

A few of the teachers are good, the guidance counselors are great, but the administration is awful and does very little to help students who fall behind or are victims of bullying.
