My experience at Nipmuc has been an interesting one, covid happened when I was a freshman so I haven't had a normal school year but nipmuc has a tone of great clubs an activity's, they did there best to keep things normal as possible. All the teachers are great and understanding and overall I had a pretty good high school experience and a pretty normal seniors year so far.
