I loved being a student at Ulysses highschool. I love the way everyone knows everyone and a lot of people get along. A lot of the sports facilities are very nice and the coaches have gotten a lot better.

The best part of my experience was making friends and memories. Being involved in things that made me go out to events was a good part of it. I would like to see more diversity in the activity's

The teachers and staff are nice, and will help you learn and grow as a person. Some of the class rooms are open, they have no doors it just opens into the hallway. some of the classes get really cold or really humid. The school has to gyms, one was added years later.
