I have really enjoyed my time at Vinton High School. I feel like it has prepared me for my next step in college. I have had to work really hard to prepare myself, but I know that I am ready. I am really looking forward to my college experience at Texas A&M University.

Had a wonderful experience. I was a active High School student and was able to play football and track for 4 years. If I had to change anything it woukf be the effect Covid had on my last two years of High School. my class had to miss out or wasn't allowed to do so much activities . Thanks
