11/20/2024

In terms of my high school experience, I have had a strong connection to the performing arts. The performing arts and sports at Walpole High School have made it enjoyable. The teachers are supportive, but some of them do not seem to care enough about what they are teaching, which is evident to the students.

I have had a good 4 years at walpole high school. My guitar teacher has challenged me and has brought me to love music more and pursue a career in business music once I graduate. The downside to high school is the restrictions.

Facilities at school are dated, particularly the auditorium and gym. Several sports events have to be held elsewhere due to size of gym.
