Most of the teachers at are school are amazing, but there's still a good number of teacher's who aren't. The security is overly time consuming and a bit harsh (eyelash curlers were banned for a bit), but it only seems to work. There are an amazing amount of clubs, and its really easy to start your own club, too.

Jackson Reed High School is a great place to be. The diversity here is amazing, and you get to meet people from all different backgrounds, which makes school a lot more interesting. The teachers care about their students, for the most part, and are always willing to help you out. The senior counselor was also really supportive and up-lifting. Overall, Jackson Reed has been a positive experience for me.

When we finally got him to talk about what was happe...
