I'd like to see more money devoted to the STEAM clubs to have better resources and support and more meeting time.

Going to school at the Wellston high school is an amazing experience. The teachers and students are very helpful and have helped me with any of my questions or problems.

The teachers are great (for the most part) I however have had a struggle getting help for matters such as bullying. The curriculum could also be harder than what it is many students don't struggle at all and just glide through all classes with little to no effort.
