I loved going to Woodward high school. I was the president of class 2013, salutatorian, and on the national honor society. I made the most of my high school academics and athletics. There were some teachers who supported and wanted the best for the students, and others were there for a paycheck. The school location is located on the North end of Toledo, considered inner city. Not the best neighborhood but the kids were intelligent...... most just grew up in a rough environment.

I love that Woodward High School was drama free because it created a safe and quiet workplace making it better to learn.

I like that mostly every student in the school is in some type of extracurricular activity or in sports. They dedicate their spare time by doing something they love. The thing I would like to see change is teachers to provide an easier way for students to learn and comprehend something they don't understand instead of just giving out paperwork over and over again. Overall teachers are great and try to help students.

The kids aimlessly wander the halls on their phones, come and go out the building as they choose, able to dress like whatever. Feels chaotic and needs a Joe Clark transformation
