At viola I have had many good times and bad times. I'm not well adjusted yet to all the new rules the administration has made, but I've always had a good time with the school spirit and clubs!

Teachers here font have any idea what they're doing. They let the parents down by not giving good directions. Pleases get some real clubs. There isn't enough kids here do do anything good.

At Viola High School, I have made friends that will last for a lifetime. All of these friends join in the clubs with me, such as FBLA, FCCLA, and even into the EAST program at school. We have the chance to make friends with the other clubs through the many things we do. We like to go to the senior citizens area and talk with all of the elderly people for a chance to learn about what the town and school were like before. All of us students in these clubs pitch in and bring non perishable food items to school to donate to the food bank. We do all that we can to help out around our area and we do not expect anything in return. Although none of us expect any sort of prize in return, the school likes to take us to an amusement park at the end of the year. It is one of the best experiences I have had in my life and I would never change my past at Viola High School for anything.
