At the school of Waldron high I have found myself having fun while also learning something almost every day. The people that I find myself surrounded by are for the most part very nice people. I always work hard every day to grow in this school and it works to my benefit.

The teachers are more worried about how the students feel about them than teaching, but the extracurricular activities I have been a part of have been memorable.

I liked how close you can get with everybody here. When it came down to a crisis everybody got together and helped one another with any situation anybody was in. This is why I will forever have my heart from this school. I loved every moment of it while I was still in school. I miss it but its time to grow up and get ready for college.
