We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best part is when you get a teacher who genuinely cares and gives you their all. The worst part would have to be the other staff that just just doesn't care enough to prepare you for anything. I would like to see all teachers and staff be able to prepare the students the best they can and how to handle real life situations.

I liked how close I could get with my teachers without feeling weird. Some of my teachers truly made me feel comfortable and safe in my school environment and as they did so, it made me learn more efficiently as I was being taught from someone I knew I could trust. I think our school lunch could improve as well as the attitudes and empathy of some staff at Walkertown High.
