Salem High school was a boring but also fun little ride. It had many ups and downs with certain teachers and my actions. I would like to see the teacher actually care about the education of the students, some do and I'm thankful for have great teachers my last two years of school. In my freshman year though, I felt like I didn't have much help and teachers guiding me right.

Salem High is a great school and has many great opportunities for all of the kids who attend there. I have been a student for four years and I have been treated well and found a group of people who accept me for me.

Overall, I rate Salem High School a 6/10. Many teachers are clearly passionate about their work, and many students are creatives due to Salem being the Performing and Arts Academy. Community is strong. There is a lot going on all of the time. However, they are strict about the dress code and the food there is public food so that's a given.
